Yes, that was the problem with the previous error, thanks for pointing that out.  I am now back to the original error:

        if exist wireshark-gtk2.pdb copy wireshark-gtk2.pdb wireshark-gtk2\wireshark.pdb
        1 file(s) copied.
        if exist ".\docbook\user-guide.chm" xcopy ".\docbook\user-guide.chm" wireshark-gtk2 /d
        wireshark-gtk2\tshark.exe -G | perl doc\dfilter2pod.pl doc\wireshark-filter.pod.template > doc\wireshark-filter.pod
Access is denied.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'wireshark-gtk2\tshark.exe' : return code '0xff'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\BIN\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
