        I don't have 2010 express,
        but it definitely loads and compiles fine in 2008 express;
        I just double checked.

        When you load the visualc\fltk.dsw, it prompts some dialog
        that asks for Yes / No / Yes to All / No to All.

        Choose 'Yes to all', and it should load up OK after about 20
        seconds or so.

        Once loaded, there's a chooser in the middle of the screen
        that says 'Debug'; change that to "Release" so that it builds
        a release version of FLTK.

        I'd also suggest changing the option in:

                Tools->Options->Projects and Solutions->General->Build And 
Run->Max parallel builds

        ..to '1', as the fltk 1.1.10 (and older) project files do not support
        the new "parallel builds" feature in 2008 Express and up. (FLTK 1.3.x 
svn
        now does, as of a week or so ago, but since you're using 1.1.10
        change it to '1')

        Then right click on the 'Solution FLTK (## projects)' at the very top
        of the 'solution explorer' and choose "Build".. that should build all
        of FLTK; the libs and test programs.

        That should work too. I believe the VS 2005 release is probably
        also known as "VS 7.x .NET", which is the same one I used in the
        video demos here:
