.NET 2003 upgrade and linking erros

[LY]

Hi

I'm in the process of upgrading all our solutions and projects from
..NET 2002 to .NET 2003. Well, of course it did not go smoothly. I am
running into a problem that I can't figure out.

Within a typical solution file, we have several ATL COM projects.
There are dependencies between these projects. The problem is that,
after the conversion, for each project (A), lines are added to the
Linker Command Line (Property Pages->Linker->Command Line) to link
with the LIB file of the projects that project A depends on. Of
course, being a COM project, they don't have LIB files. I hence, get
linking errors.

When I remove the dependencies, everything is fine. Removing the
dependencies, hopefully, is not my only option. Does anyone have any
suggestions to a possible solution?

Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
