Hi Adrian,

Thanks for your email!
 
1) How did you build it?

I installed ActivateState Perl, Bison, and Flex. Then I ran the command ```build Debug``` under directory postgres/src/tools/msvc
 
 
2) Open pgsql.sln in a text editor and report the results here.
 
Here was the result when I opened pgsql.sln in Visual Studio 2022, and ran the postgres.exe.

I look forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks!
