[vtkusers] Compile with Visual Studio 2008

[David Cole]

The first three lines of vtkMFCWindow.cpp are the culprit. They read:
#ifndef WINVER    // Allow use of features specific to Windows 95 and
Windows NT 4 or later.
#define WINVER 0x0400
#endif

Remove them or comment them out and it should work ok with VS2008.

Sorry for the inconvenience....


HTH,
David
