I read the entire YOU MUST READ THIS forum but I didn't see any related information. When i downloaded the latest zip and tried to setup my MQ2 dir in order run it. I didn't see any of the dll files in any of the folders to copy to the install folder.

Means a compiler is required... kinda like those toys you used to get, batteries not included, well this is binaries not included. (you gotta compile, VS6, .NET... I'd imagine if you were creative Borland C++)

Use google for things like that.

For instance, searching for 'What is source code' in google gives me this:
Web Definition: source code - Computer programs or operating systems are originally written by a human being in a programming language. This is called the source code of the software. To be actually used by a computer, the program has to be translated by the computer from the source code into the machine language that the computer understands and can execute. This translation process is referred to as compiling.

Neat eh?

Here is the clicky: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl ... gle+Search

And good luck with your coding, it's a lot of fun when you get the hang of it - there is just a lot to learn on the way.
