Problem building NSIS on MSVS 6

Hi,
I just installed MSVS 6 on my virtual machine and when I try to compile NSIS, I get:



I installed service pack 6 of MSVS6. I installed Toolkit 2003. I believe it should be able to compile no problem, no?

Any help would be wonderful here.

VC6 out of the box is way too old, the NSIS docs has a section with build instructions and SDK links. Any SDK that defines DLGPROC as returning BOOL and not INT_PTR is too old...

yes Anders I wandered across the building instructions for vs6. Should have been common sense to install the SDK first though 🙁!

much thanks mate
