I have just successfully built LIBTIFF with VC++ 5.0 (also works for 6.0).
I built only libtiff.lib itself; the `configure' utility is not meant for
MSWin.  Look at the readme in contrib/win95.  It has a makefile that I
copied to the libtiff directory and used.  I set up my VC++ project as a
`makefile' project.  (This had the side-effect that the project was named
"Makefile", but so be it.)  I also built one of the sample (i.e. "tool")
programs.  Fatima can contact me directly if she wants more help.

I'm in the same boat, but with VC++6.0.  Someone suggested that I check
out ImageMagick, which has workspace files for compiling with VC++.  I
did have to make a minor modification to ttraster.c to turn off the
optimization for maximum speed, but after that it compiled with no
problems.  This builds a .dll from the tiff library as well as other
image formats, and implements some graphics tools.  They might be of use
to you, but at the very least you can use it to compile the tiff
library....
