Dear Ramesh,

I've never used paintlib, but I've used jpeg.lib, so maybe this will help:

I believe paintlib.lib is the .lib you are supposed to be building, so you won't find it with the distribution.

Check your project settings and your library path settings, to make sure you are telling the project using paintlib.lib where to go and look for your copy of paintlib.lib.

I hope this helps,
Wes Rogers
