You need the free third-party app called PBBuild2, found here:

Sorry -- I didn't check it. I've e-mailed Spangly (the author) to see what's up.

In the meantime, I've used YouSendIt.com to host it here (for 7 days):

Just use jaPBe

It's a better editor anyway :)

How would you do that with Japbe ?

I have it, and it is a very nice editor.

But, the help doesn't work, so i don't know what a lot of the options do....

Look at the menubar at the top... the little icon next to the magnifying glass (find icon) is the "project options".

A window will appear where you can set your compiler options like NT4 compatible, adding an icon to the EXE, enabling XP skin support, etc.
Click on the "Version" tab at the top of this window. You can then enter all sorts of extra info as well as using wildcards to auto fill some of the info (like compile date and build number, etc.)
