 NMAKE: fatal error U1073: don't know how to make

I have two computers I do development on.  The computers do NOT have
VC++ installed in the same drive/directory location.  When I build from
the command line, one of the computers reports,

"NMAKE: fatal error U1073: don't know how to make "c:\program
files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\basetsd.h"

Is there a way I can prevent this file from being included in the
project dependencies?  It is not going to change.  Why is only this file
a problem, and not other VC++ header files?

Check out the following knowledge base article on the MSDN.

    Q102390 INFO: Keeping #include Files Out of VWB Dependency List

Basically, basetsd.h is not listed in the standard ignore headers list
(sysincl.dat), so you can add it to the msvcincl.dat.

I've added 'basetsd.h' to my c:\winnt\msvcincl.dat file, but it is still
showing up in my .dep file for my project!  Why???

I couldn't get this to work at first either, even after several iterations
of Build -> Clean and closing/restarting MSDEV. It finally started working
after I made sure there was a CR-LF at the end of the line listing basetsd.h
in msvcincl.dat.

I have also seen this error under other conditions and would also like to
know how to resolve it.

I am working on a project which consists of multiple ATL component and
client projects (dsp).  Clients make use of #import to get info from
typelibs, but when I try to compile from the command line using nmake I get
the error U1073 when the #import is encountered.  This is a problem.  I'm
trying to use scripts (Python) build automate the version control and build
process and this issue is getting in the way.  Is there any way to resolve
this?

My mistake.  The file targeted for import did not exist.
