Linker Error : File 'boost_regex_vc7_mdid.lib' not found.

Description 

We opened a VC6 project, that uses Boost libraries, in 
VS .Net 2003. It compiles properly, but fails to link. The 
error is fatal error LNK1104: cannot open 
file 'boost_regex_vc7_mdid.lib'.
Does anybody have an idea how we can get this file?
plus we would like to know how to set the STLport_path?

You will need to build Boost.Regex with the new compiler
that you are using.  Note that to get the error message you
received, you must have been using Visual Studio .NET (VC7)
and *not* Visual Studio .NET 2003 (VC7.1) as you stated. 
Please refer to the installation instructions in the
Boost.Regex documentation for details of building the
library, including how to do so with STLport.
