I don't think that is correct.  I've compiled QtWin (not latest snapshot  
though) fine using VC6, have you installed the fixpack per the install  
instructions (see below)?  What version was it?  What was the error?

"You will need the latest platform SDK for MSVC6 available from here (core  
SDK is needed)"

Also if I remember correctly, it does fail partway through, but agin the  
instructions are useful:

"This should build the whole Qt release. If it breaks you can restart  
compiling with

c:\source\qt-3> nmake [< target >]"

Now at some point I'll provide more detail on how to get Qt working from  
the IDE itself, i.e. how to set your project up, that would be a good  
addition I think to the doc.
