Hi, how can I compile a Visual C++ project with the Borland C++ 5.5 compiler? I do it this way: I export a makefile within VC and then I call "make" from dos prompt (path is set to compiler dir). But I get a lot of messages like this: "Error makefile xxx: Command syntax error", where "xxx" are different line numbers. What do I do wrong? thx, Tim-Oliver

VC makefiles aren''t compatible with the BC++ 5.5 commandline tools.

You''d better try Quincy2000 to compile your app with a few mouse clicks.

(or just RTFM )

Can I open my VC projects in Quincy? If yes, how?

Hmm, your pretty new to this stuff aren't you?

Quincy does NOT open VC projects/workspaces/makefiles/whatever.

- Execute Quincy, go to the "File" menu, click "New" and choose "New project".
- Type in all needed stuff and you'll get a new window on your screen.
- Now click with the right mouse button in that window and choose "Insert".
- Insert all your files (*.CPP, *.C, *.H, etc) and hit the "Build" button.
- Execute your program.

Ready!

Thx!
The only IDE I know is the VC IDE, so I''ve got some problems with other apps...
