VSX - Slow Progress

I'm still working on the tutorials, but the holiday has offered a nice break from technology.  It's good to be reminded that I have other roles in life, like "Dad" and "friend".  Here's the latest I have to report.

After ranting about the annoying CTC files, I learned about the new VSCT file format.  There is also a prerelease compiler for the new file format.  This looks like a major improvement to VSX, but it isn't part of the tutorials, so I'll plow ahead.

I looked over the VSSDK Assist site, and decided this was a tool I wanted to use.  Unfortunately, it failed to install for me.  I've reported the bug.  I'll try it on an XP box and see if I have more luck.

Hi Alan,

Regarding VSSDK Assist installation, if you are running Vista with UAC enabled you should try this:
