Hi guys

I have a .lib file created with previous versions of visual studio, perhaps 2003
I link it with my code in visual studio 2010. build succeeds but I get this warning

warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'msvcrt.lib' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

I want my application to use VS2010 'msvcrt.lib' library, which is newer than the
library embeded in .lib file.

How can I make sure that the VS2010 library is linked ?
Is ther any way to force my old .lib to use new 'msvcrt.lib' ?

I program inNative CPP.

Thanks in forward

Did you build the previous lib by linking statically or dynamically?

I linked statically to make an exe.

The previous lib has come to me from SafeNet company and
I do not know wether it has been linked statically or dynamically.
How can I know That?
