Error on compile and executing the program in VC++ 6.

Question

I have a problem when I compile and execute the program in Visual C++ 6. It shows an error message when compiling resources:

Compiling... StdAfx.cpp Compiling... sas.cpp MainFrm.cpp sasDoc.cpp sasView.cpp Generating Code... Linking... LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "Debug/sas.exe" Error executing link.exe. sas.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I use Windows Vista Ultimate. What do I do?

Try to change the Target Name for your project. You can do this accessing Properties > Configuration Properties > General > Target Name. Change it a few times until you get it right. This is a workaround for what seems to be a bug in Visual Studio.
