nafxcw.lib(appcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___argv

Zones: Microsoft Visual C++.Net, Windows Programming, Microsoft Visual C++

Building a service .exe using Visual Studio 2005 ver 8.0.50727.762. When I try to use MFC static, always get the linker error as in the title. Exactly the same build configuration works fine in 2003 ver 7.1. Of course the problem goes away if I use the option of dynamically linking to MFC dll's, but that can cause problems in deployment.

Resolved. I found that, nevertheless, certain library modules included by the linker had in fact been built for dynamic MFC inclusion, conflicting with the Static linkage requested for the main module.
Hope this can help others to resolve such problems, have seen a number of cries for help like mine.
