Looks like your path variables are not set. You may want to reinstall
your MSVC++ and this time when it asks you to set your path variables
click yes. Using the VCVARS.BAT file does not help because IDL by
default open a new command line where the path variables are not set.
I know this because I had encountered the same problem when using
call_external.

Good Luck!
