how do you mean "not in the listing"? be aware that you are dealing with a caveman that is willing to learn but needs dummy-style guidance.

I simply copied the visible output of nmake from my DOS window to the message body, as-is.
- Should I have copied even more text?
- is there a way to redirect the output in Windows like it can be done so nicely in Linux?


unsurprisingly no-on ewas able to help.

well, you just did, thank you! Next time I will try to make sure that the actual error is in the listing, and if somebody tells me what to should look for, I'll do it better than last time.

Is there a way to tell Windows to use "apps" instead of "program files" by default? I'm going to re-install my WinXP now that SP3 is out and if I can make wise choices right from the start, I am all ears. Apology if this may be off-topic for this list. I promise I will document publicly all things I do so that the next person (caveman or smarter) that wants to go through the building process won't feel the same pain.

thanks!
