Thanks James,

Your note renewed my interest in trying to figure this out (Remember that I
have never used MSVC6 - all my C experience is outdated command line
compiler stuff).

Options under the Build menu didn't really do anything.  I just discovered
that you can set the Active Project, and the current project from the
download was Xregion.  I set this to winvnc, and then tried a "Build
winvnc4.exe".  This time, my PC got busy compiling.... then stopped with
this error:

Updating buildTime
buildTime.cxx
fatal error C1083: Cannot open compiler generated file:
'Debug\buildTime.obj': No such file or directory

There isn't a folder called Debug (there IS one called Debug_Unicode
however).  This first attempted build is on an untouched download of the
sources from yesterday.  I'm going to continue my digging.  Comments welcome
if I'm missing the obvious.  -thanks

Mike

Mike,

The VNC 4 source code is designed to be built under MSVC 6.  You just load
it and build the relevant project, or batch build them all.

Cheers,
