MSVCMRTD.lib(mstartup.obj) : error LNK2022: metadata operation failed : tagTEXTMETRICA

[EDN Admin]

<p dir="ltr" style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px I am getting the following errors when converting our Managed C++ code from VS2003 to VS2005:

MSVCMRTD.lib(mstartup.obj) : error LNK2022
MSVCMRTD.lib(mehvecdtr.obj) : error LNK2022
MSVCMRTD.lib(managdeh.obj) : error LNK2022
MSVCMRTD.lib(msilexit.obj) : error LNK2022
MSVCMRTD.lib(puremsilcode.obj) : error LNK2022

I am using the same cl and link options for every file. We have one common
make_com.mif that gets included by all other makefiles. That way, there is
only one place to change the options.

Here is the command line for cl.exe (though Im pretty sure that the real
problem is the linker):

cl -c -Fddebug -Fodebug -WX -Gd -Zp1 -nologo -vmg -Gs -D_WIN95 -DWIN32 -DWINVER=0x0400 -W3 -MDd /clrldSyntax -wd 4562 -wd 4835 -wd 4996 -wd 4793 -DVS2005 -DFORWARD_DECLARE_FIX -DNO_PL -DNO_ITEM_HIER -DINCLUDE_XPERTS -DIN_XACTWRAP_DLL -DDEBUG -Od -Zi xwmain.cpp > xwmain.drr

And probably more importantly, here are the linker options:

link -debug -OPT:NOWIN98 /CLRIMAGETYPE:IJW /CLRTHREADATTRIBUTE:MTA -nologo /DLL -subsystem:windows,4.0 -OUT:sdaMainbindebugXWRAP70.DLL /MACHINE:IX86 /BASE:0x44000000 /INCREMENTAL:NO kernel32.lib advapi32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib winspool.lib comctl32.lib ole32.lib uuid.lib vfw32.lib oledlg.lib winmm.lib oleaut32.lib mpr.lib version.lib sdaMainbindebugx_dll32.lib sdaMainbindebugimplodei.lib debugxactwrap.res /NOENTRY

Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?
