Boost-Build :

I'd like to use the bind library at the boost.org website, which
seems to involve using boost-build v2 and boost-jam to get set up. I
get to step 4 of the Boost.Build v2 Installation instructions
apparently OK, with the following output:

Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 9.1)
Boost.Jam 03.01.09

Then I enter the user-config.jam file, uncommenting

#using msvc

but changing it, since I am using VC7.1, to

using vc7

When I go to C:\temp\boost-build\example\hello and at my Win2000
Command Prompt type

bjam

I get the following error text

vc7.jam no such file or directory
C:/temp/boost-build/build\toolset.jam:23: in using
rule vc7.init unknown in module toolset.
C:/temp/boost-build/.\user-config.jam:29: in modules.load
C:/temp/boost-build\build-system.jam:56: in load
C:\temp\boost-build\example\..\kernel\modules.jam:259: in import
C:\temp\boost-build\example\..\kernel\bootstrap.jam:120: in boost-
build
C:\temp\boost-build\example\boost-build.jam:2: in module scope

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
