The manifest tool (mt.exe) is included in the Microsoft Windows SDK, Version 6.0 - which BTW also includes the complete VC++ 8 compiler and runtime libraries. It's called "Windows SDK for Windows Vista", but can also be used on Windows XP. The SDK installer can be downloaded from Microsoft's website.

I am not sure vs8 is actually required, I think all you need is the mt tool from vs8. There maybe a way to get that tool and use it from vs7. Basically, the fix is to embed some xml into the .exe. -Bill _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
