Would be nice to add that to the Makefile.pl
But looking at it breifly I think all we are opening a whole can of worms
here.
The required files could be stored allmost anywhere on the disk so searching
for it could take a while.
Unfortunetly I do not have a copy of VS8 to test ways of looking for it and
required libs.
We might get away with just looking for the libs in the PATH but I am not
sure which exact libs to look for without haveing VS8 to play with.
I will see if I can get a copy.
cheers

Well that is it then. Which version of Visual studio are you using?
As I said before VS8 normally only comes with the libs needed for .NET
apps
not DOS apps.
Check the readme file for windows it has links to some of the libraries
you
may need.
Is there a simple and reliable way to detect this problem in Makefile.PL?
Tim.
