FW: [vtkusers] how can I start for a example of VTK in Window

[Amy Squillacote]

Hi Angela,

It sounds like you have used CMake in the process of building VTK but 
are not using CMake in trying to build this example.  There is a 
CMakeLists.txt file in your 
C:\VTK-4.2-LatestRelease\VTK\Examples\Tutorial\Step1\Cxx directory 
for this purpose; try running CMake with this directory as the source 
code directory.  Then load the project file that is created into 
Visual Studio and compile.  If this does not work, please report to 
this e-mail list the errors you are seeing.

- Amy
