For the financially challenged: Allegedly there exists a downloadable freebie, just the compiler with none of the Visual stuff. I suspect it is an urban legend. Maybe you can find it in the maze of Microsoft.com (actually if it exists it is more likely to be in MSDN). I got an Educational Edition of Visual C++ included with a Deitel and Deitel How to Program C++ book. Its exactly the same except for an annoying "You must register to get rid of this" (or something) everytime you run a binary compiled using it. There are other legitimate ways to get the use of Visual Studio, i just cant think of them at the moment. -- ~ |v| // \\ /( )\ ^`~'^ ----------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
