Building xll

[Guest]

I need to build an xll to speed up some UDFs I have
built. What version of Visual C++ should I use/buy? I
will only use the development tool to do build xll
files. Do any of the versions come with help to start
building an xll so that I don't have to figure out all
the tricks? Maybe a skeleton project to start with where
I can add my functions to get started.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Having never developed an XLL before, I can't recommend a compiler.

I believe most XLL developers start with Generic.XLL
