I get the following error message when building with the MATLAB COM Builder:
C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/INCLUDE/ocidl.idl(847)
: error MIDL2025 : syntax error : expecting a type specification near "CY"
C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/INCLUDE/ocidl.idl(848)
: error MIDL2026 : cannot recover from earlier syntax errors; aborting compilation
MBUILD.BAT: Error: IDL compile of 'D:/MATLAB6p5/work/magicdemo/src/magicdemo_idl.idl' failed.

This error is due to a bug in the Microsoft MIDL.exe compiler that Visual Studio uses. You can resolve the problem by changing your regional settings to English.
