 I.  Building the Driver from the source code
 
 This section describes how to build the PostgreSQL ODBC Driver (psqlodbc.dll).
-Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.0 or higher is required.  There is no manually 
-constructed Makefile.  The visual C++ environment automatically generates one
-during the build process. Thus, the project binary files (".ncb", ".mdp", ".aps") 
-nor the makefile are really distributed as part of the source code release
-(although they are probably in there anyway).
+Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.0 or higher is required. Other compilers may work

+VC++ IDE or from the command line:

-III.  Using Row Versioning feature and creating the missing equals operator

-In order to use row versioning, you must overload the int4eq function for use

-You must do this for each database you want to use this feature on.
