Do you have a typical platform dependent issue you're battling with ? Ask it here. Make sure you mention your platform, compiler, and wxWidgets version.

I meant what the docs describe as step 0
Open a "Visual Studio Command Prompt" window shortcut to which
must have been installed to the "Start" menu or the "Start" screen
by MSVS installation.
Yes, I performed this step. I can try invoking the batch file directly. When I used nmake, the build completed successfully. I just couldn't run the resulting program because of the error I mentioned at the start of this thread. Maybe the problem was that the default build with nmake uses SDK 8.1 and I only have SDK 10.

I believe that unlike MSVS solutions, makefiles do not specify an SDK version (which is is taken from the nmake build environment), so the same one should be used for both library and sample automatically.

In that case I don't now why it failed to use SDK 10.
