Hi there,

I am porting my windows project from my desktop and my laptop. At my 
desktop, I can compile and run my project/application without any 
problem, while at my laptop, I got the following compilation error:

Fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file 'afxsock.h': No such file or 
directory

Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition is used for both cases. The two 
computers have virtually the same settings:
My desktop runs Windows Vista Home Premium (2007), SP2
My laptop  runs Windows Vista Ultimate (2007), SP2

Any idea for the fatal error?

Thank you!

As you have been reminded several times before, this is a C++ language 
group, not a tool one.

Try one of the microsoft.public.* groups.

As the compiler tells you, you do not have afxsock.h. In my installation
of visual c++ it is in

\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\atlmfc\include

You should copy the missing files and libraries from your desktop
into your laptop.

Or, for the Express Edition which doesn't come with ATL or MFC, 
install the Windows Platform SDK.

Sure, that is a far better option.
