Would CDK run on a Alpha AXP machine running Windows NT?

>>Would CDK run on a Alpha AXP machine running Windows NT?<< The compiler support for CDK is the Intel based MSCV++, not the Alpha. Thus CDK based programs will not run on that platform. Brian

Yea, but Microsoft Visual C++ v.2 will run on an Alpha, so why will it not work?
