Joel, Thanks for the information. I had not seen the mailing list before. Don't know how I missed it. Regards, Robert

Thanks John for the reply. I was afraid that would be the answer. I just spent the last 8 months creating a BACnet server and VTS was helpful in figuring things out. I also used YABE and BACnet Test Suite demo (we don't have funds for the full suite) as well as trying to decipher the ASHRAE Spec. and it was a struggle getting definitive information about how things are supposed to work in BACnet. So, I am going to assume you had some knowledge of BACnet and will ask if you could point me in the direction...

Is there documentation of any kind about the various pieces of the VTS project/solution? I have finally gotten things to build using VS 2015 and the result creates a runnable application, so far. (I haven't yet tried to run it thru its paces to see if it runs like the executable that I downloaded and have been using.) I had to edit the PTP project options and a couple of source files to get it to even compile. It wasn't difficult but I was doing things essentially blind. So, having gotten to here...

deleted...this was the wrong place for what I was seeking.

John, Your comment seems to imply that I should be able to build VTS using the current 2019(?) Visual Studio C++. Is that true and have you done that? I am looking to see if I can get VTS updated to BACnet Standard 135-2016 level so I can use it better for my project. I was going to try building with VS 2010 but the version I have doesn't have MFC included. I am looking for the easiest path to a working build environment. I am OK using if VS 2010 if necessary but I would prefer using the latest tools...
