SlickEdit and the MicroChip C30 Compiler

[tonyh]

Hi I'm pretty new to SlickEdit and I need some help getting started.  I inherited a project with many files and have been using SlickEdit to get around in the files. This works great much better then Microchip's IDE. My question is can I compile within SlickEdit and if so how do I get SlickEdit to run the MicroChip C30 compiler for me. From the help file it seems like this is possible but from a command line only. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks

did you try using a Makefile?

Yes but I'm not sure it is setup correctly I get this error:

C:\TT4USB-MA V43\Code>"C:\Program Files\SlickEditV16.0.1 x64\win\vsbuild" -signal 54231 -command cc -c -g   -o "Debug\usb_function_msd.o" "C:\TT4USB-MA V43\Code\drvUSB\usb_function_msd.c"
VSLICKERRORPATH="C:\TT4USB-MA V43\Code"
cc -c -g -o Debug\usb_function_msd.o "C:\TT4USB-MA V43\Code\drvUSB\usb_function_msd.c"
vsbuild: File not found (cc)

The Makefile has CC = pic30-gcc.exe
