The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows versions 3.1 and 3.0

SYMPTOMS

When the Resource Compiler (RC) is used to compile a resource script, it cannot locate include files.

CAUSE

The environment variable INCLUDE contains a path that ends in a backslash (example, set INCLUDE=C:\).

RESOLUTION

Change the declaration of the environment variable to remove the trailing backslash.

This problem is often caused when the SUBST command is used to specify a logical drive for a path.
