[ADMB Users] installation of admb on 64-bit windows 7

[Certain Grégoire]

Hi,

Everythink is in the title.
I tried to install it using the version
Visual C++ 2008 64-bit (executable installer<http://admb-project.googlecode.com/files/admb-9.1-windows-vc9-64bit.exe>) available at http://admb-project.org/downloads
The installation is processed, but then no commands are working. if I try to type "nmake" according to the the tutorial here is what I get:

#####################################

make or makeadm doesn't work either:

If I try to specify the path toward the directory simple and launch an example, here's what I get:

So, I'm only an advanced user of R. Unfortunately, I'm a beginner in C++ and I guess that's why I can't go further. I would be pleased to be able to work with "the most powerful software package for the development of state-of-the-art nonlinear models". Is there some new tutorial that could help me ?

All the best,
Grégoire.
