Thanks Ross, Before I jump into this perhaps you could give me some
pointers.
Is there a "step by step" writeup somewhere that describes how to
configure Visual Studio 2008 to run
ml.exe.  When I last looked all I could find was (free) downloads/
instructions to set it up with an ealier version of VS (the free
student version).   The VS 2008 help itself is not very clear to me.

I will look for Link as well. Question, will it work with W7 (64bit).
Do I have to use a CMD.exe box or can it also sit within VS2008.
