hi all

this is my first post and I need some help in compiling perl
op sys win2000 pro

I have vs.net 2003

I have cd'd to C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~3.NET\VC7\BIN> for nmake
I another other instances of nmake in sdk\v1.1\bin but am using the
above
I ran vcvars23.bat

PATH has c:\perl\perl-5.8.3\win32

I am compiling from the command line

I execute: nmake c:\perl\perl-5.8.3\win32\Makefile

the error I get is

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'config_H.vc'
Stop.

My Makefile settings are:

INST_DRV = c:
INST_TOP = $(INST_DRV)\perl
#INST_VER = \5.8.3
#INST_ARCH = \$(ARCHNAME)
USE_MULTI = define
USE_ITHREADS = define
USE_IMP_SYS = define
USE_PERLIO = define
USE_LARGE_FILES = define
#USE_5005THREADS = define
#CCTYPE = MSVC20
CCTYPE = MSVC60
#CFG = Debug
#USE_PERLCRT = define
#USE_SETARGV = define
CRYPT_SRC = fcrypt.c
#CRYPT_LIB = fcrypt.lib
#PERL_MALLOC = define
#DEBUG_MSTATS = define

CCHOME = c:\program files\microsoft visual studio .net 2003\vc7
CCINCDIR = $(CCHOME)\include
CCLIBDIR = $(CCHOME)\lib

#BUILDOPT = $(BUILDOPT) -DPERL_POLLUTE
#BUILDOPT = $(BUILDOPT) -DPERL_EXTERNAL_GLOB
#BUILDOPT = $(BUILDOPT) -DPERL_TEXTMODE_SCRIPTS
EXTRALIBDIRS =

TIA
