Sorry for the mail bombing...
I am trying to run the exe and no matter what I try typing in, I get a usage
error.
I have the path set to boost\boost_1_38\bin so I can run bcp anywhere.

I go to boost\boost_1_38 and type:  bcp boost\regex.hpp \temp  (temp is the
output dir for me), and I get the usage error?  What am I doing wrong?

Jason

You can use bcp to extract a subset of Boost: 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/tools/bcp/bcp.html

Of course your final executable will be the same size regardless of whether 
you extract out Boost.Regex or not :-)

HTH John.
