You have to use VS2008, or, better, use VS2010 but you have to build Qt by yourself, the redistributed Qt version is for VS2008. If you are interested I can upload a version of Qt built with VS2010, it's a about a GB. However read step by step INSTALL.win32 [1], everything is important. Follow those steps and everything will work fine. Suggestion: use Qt Creator. I think it's the best solution. venom00 [1] http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyx-devel/trunk/INSTALL.Win32
