Thanks Graham

I tried Visual Studio command prompt and it worked.
After encountering a few errors and googling around it, I am now stuck at the below error. Looks like a syntax error in html2text.py. Have anyone seen it?

For the sake of future users, I believe the wireshark developer doc must be editied



Maybe you could use the Explorer search facility to find the files?  Doing so on my XP /2010 Express build environment found:

  C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat
  C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC\vcvarsall.bat
  C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat

vcvars32 and vsvars32 are identical, vsvarsall is a wrapper to setup the environment for cross compiling (e.g. amd64 on x86) by passing in extra parsm

There is another simpler way however, in the Start Menu, under the Visual Studio Express item there should be an entry for "Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010)".  Use that and the environment is set for you.

I believe there are some issues around Visual Studio 2010 SP1 and the 7.1 SDK, generally around breaking the compilers.  Google will lead you to some info.
