I am sure you have checked out these URL's http://www.applicationporting.org/2013/08/step-by-step-guide-for-openldap-windows.html http://www.openldap.org/software/download/ http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10484788/compiling-openldap-using-visual-studio-10-express BTW, update to Win 10. It is free and will save you from having to do it when 8.1 is no longer supported. I love Win 10 PRO as compared to Win 8.1 PRO. -- Jerry
