I have just installed BitPim, upon running the pogramme i am getting a error in a box. The error states

The program can not start because MSVCP71.dll is missing from your computer, try reinstall to fix this problem

av tried to reinstall. i noticed the file is located in the BitPim folder however it cant be opened as i dont have any program on my system which would recognise a .dll file

can anyone help me with this issue

A Google search shows lots of solutions for that specific .dll problem. I haven't experienced it so I can't vouch as to the solutions at this link

Its a commonly asked problem from users of bitpim, as you can see here

http//old.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?forum=14430&local=y&query=MSVCP71.dll+

They did not include it in the download as they did not believe the dll's license allowed it. The solutions in the above forum should help you out.

Hi Wulf,

I don't know the product myself but have been a developer in the past. You might want to try the following-

If you can locate the library file you can invoke the registration of the file using the following command at either a command line promt or DOS window. C\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\REGSVR32 MSVCP71.dll [Enter] this will cause the system to register the library file and it's location. May be best to do this from the folder in which the file is located.

Hope this helps

Richard
