My first advice would be to try configure with the shortcut VS provides for cmd (from the start menu).
And you also you might take a look at the already "built with Visual Studio 2008 Qt framework":http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2008 and see if it provides what you need (and saves you about 3 hours to build the framework).
