I believe this is error in documentation. Actual value being used in 
como-win23-tools.jam is VC7_ROOT . This should have been set by your 
vcvars32.bat to c:\vsnet\vc7 (given your example directory c:\vsnet ). 
If you do not have MSVC7 but other version of Visual C++ (like 6.0 or 
7.1) you just need to customize two variables : COMO_BACKEND_PATH and 
COMO_BACKEND . You might also create custom toolset, see 
como-4_3_3-v17_1-tools.jam for example.
