File Not Found: LINK.EXE

[MSweetG222]

I am learning how to create a COM add-in using Office XP Developer Edition.
I am following the "Hello World" example from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...gCOMAdd-in.asp

When I attempt to perform the "Make Greetings.DLL" step, I receive the
following error message:
File Not Found: LINK.EXE

Question #1: Where can I get a copy of the Link.exe?
I looked in the Office XP Developer CD, Office XP
Professional CD & Office XP Developer Windows Components Update CD - none
have this file.

Question #2: In what directory do I place the Link.exe (when I find it) for
Office XP Developer to "see" it?

Thx

Fixed it.

I think the files necessary are in:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...cePack1enu.exe

Thx
