I would love to clean this all up for PHP Windows developers so if someone can give me the "AH HA" behind all this, that would be great.

Ok folks, never mind. The web page "Building from Source" at:

  http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.building.php

is making sense, answering all the questions for me, including this note regarding the un-maintained/legacy DSW project files:

     Building PHP using DSW files [PHP 4]

     Compiling PHP using the DSW files isn't supported as of
     PHP 5, as a much more flexible system was made available.
     Anyway, you can still use them, but keep in mind that they
     are not maintained very often, so you can have compiling
     problems. To compile PHP 4 for windows, this is the only
     available way though.

Once I get the "official maintained" command-line building method worked out, I will update the Visual Studio project/solution files for both VS 6.0 and VS 2005 (which is what I have). When I cross that bridge, I'll ask someone to test the VS 2008 Express version.

Thanks
