Re: mkoctfile MSVC 2008 Express (Need Help)

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hello 

I have finished to downgrading to VC++ Express 2005.

In the installing I met the following in the Microsoft page.

Under certain conditions when installing on Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP, 
a digital signature
verification error can occur. Please see Knowledge base article 925336 for 
details and resolution.

However, retry install have finished with success.
I confirmded the mkoctfile works with VC++ Express 2005 + Platform SDK.

For the MCVC++ express 2008, I need help with the power user of windows. 

Regards

Tatsuro
