I'm trying to build boost 1.38.0 on Windows, with MSVC 8.0 and bjam 3.1.17, and I get this error : 'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. ...skipped bin.v2\libs for lack of bin.v2...

Try building boost in a directory that's full path name doesn't include any spaces. It could also be that bjam is located in such a path and is having trouble.

D:\boost_1_38_0>bjam -q -j3 -d+2 --toolset=msvc --build-type=complete

The command above looks okay in both these respects. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
