If you want to build a command line build (i.e. use MSVC only as a compiler, not as an IDE) you need to go to Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio -> Tools -> x86 command prompt (or x64 if you want a 64 bit binary). From that shell you can call CMake like this and you will get a NMake makefile for your project. If you want to use the MSVC IDE you need to pass "-G "Visual Studio 2010" (or something similar, it will complain if I'm wrong) to the CMake command line on the first run. And you need to upgrade to 2.8, preferrably 2.8.3. Eike
