Win32s _iob error

I'm developing under NT 3.51 using VC++ 4.00. The app is targeted at NT, 95,
and 3.1 using 32s. On the test 32s box the Checkbook and other sample apps
run okay so I assume 32s and the MFC DLLs are correct. My app generates the
_iob not found error. Why? How do I fix this?

When I had this problem, I eliminated it by:

a) Removing any stdio (fprintf, etc) calls from some support DLL's (which I 
had the source to).
b) NOT linking with OLDNAMES.LIB (which is NOT supported under Win32s).

If neither of these (do BOTH!) work, email me back and I will help you 
track down the problem.

P.S. An easy way to find out who is asking for __iob is to not link with 
the C Runtime Library (LIBC.LIB or MSVCRT.LIB), capture the resulting ton 
of errors, and search for 'iob'. This will tell you which object module is 
trying to use it, and you can check the source for that module and remove 
stdio calls.
