Re^2: cl.exe &

You need to this from the "Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt"

That is simply wrong. You don't, it works just fine off the cmd.exe command line, all you have to do is set the PATH, LIB, INCLUDE env vars as detailed above. See here for example of running it off the normal command line.

all you have to do is set the PATH, LIB, INCLUDE env vars as detailed above Er, precisely, and what is the easiest way of doing this in the correct way for the configuration of the system? Oh yes, using the "Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt" which runs a handy little batch file that does all that stuff for you. I don't see any sense where that is "wrong" at all. In retrospect perhaps I should have replaced "need" with "will find this easier if". shrug /J\	[reply]
