Hi,
Thanks for your help so far.

Wxwidgets is installed.

CMake is installed.

I now need to install the boost C++ libraries
During setup I am asked to select from the following default variants

In the left pane In the right pane
Visual c++ 7.1 Multithread debug DLL
Visual c++ 8.0 Multithread DLL
Multithread
Multithread DEBUG
Multithread STATIC RUNTIME
Multithread DEBUG STATIC RUNTIME
Single thread,static runtime
Single thread debug,static runtime

Which from the above do I choose?
Again thank you for you valued assistance.

David
