Are you creating your own mysql++.sln, then?  Why not convert the one =
shipped with the library in the vs2008 subdirectory?  It will have the =
libraries (and more) set up correctly already.

You're missing the MySQL C API library, called libmysql.lib on Windows.  =
If you're creating your own .sln file, you can add it.  If you're using =
the supplied one, you either don't have the MySQL development files =
installed or they are in a different path than is hard-coded into the =
supplied project files; in which case, see README-Visual-C++.txt.=
