Roman, I recently started building on Windows myself.
The page Maximillian mentioned ( http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Building_OOo_with_Cygwin_on_Windows) is a great resource, and definitely your best friend in getting OOo to build. I made a few changes to it myself to reflect my own experiences. I used VS2008 express (free download) and it built fine (DEV300_M37). Once you get it all building, you will probably want to write a script that ties together the whole process to make it simple. I have one that does the following (let me know if you want that): 1) copies the required 'external' files into the appropriate source directories 2) configures the build 3) bootstraps the build, then begins the build process.
