Thanks for the thoughts...

I changed the "or, if you are using MSVC, add "USE_RAID" to the defines in
the IDE."  This created a new set of problems when I did as well.

On the Unix version the instructions are rather clear and they work (I have
turned Raid on Linux already). There are no specific directions for the
Windows version which has left me at my dilemma.

For many reasons I need windows and Unix versions to work in a similar
fashion.

Hmmm...what are you doing wrong...well, first...stop trying to compile
things when you don't know WHAT your doing....
;)  try not to take offense, however, your question is VERY
scary...don't modify code when you're clueless.

You must set the define in the Makefile.  for example:

#./configure --enable-raid   < the enable option is probably wrong
here....use ./configure --help for a list

or

#setenv CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -DUSE_RAID"

or, if you are using MSVC, add "USE_RAID" to the defines in the IDE.

These are just pointers...haven't compiled anything in winbloze in 6 years.

Good luck!
