I have also tried to change the settings in use project - >Settings->C/
C++ Menu ->Category as code generation->runtime library(Debug
Multithreaded and MultiThreaded)

also tried the other setting in runtime library menu option..

Some one could you please help..

It looks as if you have inconsistent compiler settings in your project.

In an MFC project, you should only change the runtime settings using "Use of
MFC" on the main settings page. This will change the CRT settings in a
consistent manner.

If you change them as you describe, you can generate inconsistency between the
MFC and CRT settings.
