yeah, that's very interesting. By the offical way you _must_ do some changes in
your code, if you have trouble you must edit the SDK files.
I don't like this way and just uninstalled this product and going back to my VC
6.0 :)

btw there are some more reasons why i did that. For example nerve assistants,
overloaded buttons and icons und a useless startpage.
