How to build TightVNC with VC7 (Visual C++ .NET)
================================================


Introduction
------------

This text documents how to build TightVNC with VC7. 


The VC7 "Standard" Edition
--------------------------

The VC7 "Standard" Edition does not come with an optimizing
compiler. It is possible to use the compiler from the free Visual C++
Toolkit 2003, though. See
http://www.sawtoothdistortion.com/Articles/FreeOptimizingCompiler.html
for more information. (This documents assumes that you are using Method
Two.)

--------

* Open vnc.dsw. Select "Yes to all". 

* Select Build->Configuration Manager->Active Solution
