IFC Newbie Help

[gfthomas8]

I'm using IFC 7.1 from .NET 2003 on W2KSP3 which has a coexisting VS98. I have a couple of 'getting started'-type questions:

1. How do you activate IFC online and context-sensitive Help from within .NET IDE? If I create a msdn filter for IFC what attributes should it have (I'm surprised that IFC setup doesn't take care of this detail!). Are there .chm equivalents of the .pdf docs available?
2. In using the command line NMAKE facility for IFC in .NET how do you ensure that it picks up the nmake in ..Vc7in and not ..VC98in?

Thank you,
Gerry T.

There's no F1 help for IFC, and the help isn't merged with the MSDN help. For the documents in PDF form, there are not CHM equivalents.

You have to make sure your PATH is defined properly to get the right tools. If you start your command prompt session with the "Build Environment for IA-32 Applications" shortcut, it should do this for you.
