I think my major problem is how to modify an existing makefile so that it
will be specific for Visual Studio to build a Windows XP executable. Maybe
if I can get hold of an example makefile for Visual C++ 6.0 that would be
helpful. Also, I think I need to update the compiler to 7.1... and thats
another headache which I cannot find anywhere.. told it was free to
download.. i think he means the intel compiler 7.1? or is there a Visual C++
7.1 compiler? arrrrrrr

Cheers
