The only thing that seemed a little easier was in DCD's kitchen it showed me at the bottom of the screen what the last item processed was when it failed.

Not sure I understand what you're saying, but .hv errors are detected and shown the same way between the two buildoses. The sorry error messaging is really a function of the sorry tool MS provides to build the hive. Errors that occur during the build should be more explicit than the equivalent in Bepe's buildos. If there are error msgs that don't provide everything you need to know, let me know what they are and what you need additionally.

Still, that's something that needs improvement. It's the ONLY thing that makes the PPCKitchen at all difficult for me.
And I was given the impression by others that DCD's kitchen's not compatible. What would I need to do to drop it into the PPCkitchen and make it work? I would have been much happier today if I had known that. Much easier.

What have you tried? There are a couple ways to do it...best is to make a selections.txt for it, then you should be able to apply it to each new kitchen he puts out without much effort.
