Thanks for your help Jeff.

Yes, that works and gregorian.hpp is present.  In fact, I can also 
right-click on the #include line in the .cpp file and choose "Open 
Document", and VS will open the file!   So VS can find it in the editor.  
It's just when it builds the project that it can't seem to find it.

Yes, that's precisely what I used.  And it did build all the libs and 
dlls, and copy all the header files, etc. into the C:\Boost\include
\boost-1_33_1  folder structure.  That part seemed to go smoothly.  The 
only warning was about not having perl installed.  It appears perl is 
not a requirement, correct?

I'm totally perplexed by this.  Is there anything more that needs to be 
done, other than what I've described above?  #defines, env vars?  If 
not, maybe I'll start over from the beginnning.
