[vtkusers] Static Libraries in VS C++ 2005 Express

[X Z]

1. Which version VTK are you building?  I didn't try anything higher than 
4.2

2. Do you see at the end of building "INSTALL", something like:

CMake Error: Error in cmake code at
c:/vtkbin/cmake_install.cmake:60:
FILE cannot find file: C:/vtkbin/CMake/cmVTK_WRAP_TCL2.dll to install.

My solution was to manual comment out the offending lines in 
"cmake_install.cmake", providing that you don't care about TCL, Java 
wrapping.
