The Express Edition of VC++ does not come with built-in support for compiling to a 64-bit target.
The Windows SDK contains an x64 compiler which can be used from a command prompt, which is what the
OP seems to have done by spawning a batch script.

Ok, but because I read in the Help of Visual C++ Express Edition:" to compile
to 64bit with Express Edition needs to install the: Windoes SDK tool kit" ?
(with. net framework 3.5 Sp1)
I don't understand

I don't understand

it is really a little annoying, that there is no useful
information out somewhere that shows how i can
build a 64Bit dll from within my Visual C++ 2008
Express Edition.

x64-Bit development is supported starting with the Standard Edition:
