I was compiling  Pcbuild.sln from cpython in vc++ 2008 and i got the error as "Solution folders are not supported in this version of application-Solution folder will be displayed as unavailable".   Could someone please tell me the source and reason for this error.

It's because you're using the free "Express" edition of Visual Studio, and not the full, paid-for Visual Studio.

However, I believe you can ignore the error, and the solution should still be built. (I'm not absolutely sure, as I use the full Visual Studio).
