Hi

How to compile SLN project in windows 8? I downloaded VS express but it shows error due to compatibility issue.
"

Open the project file “host_proxm.sln” with Microsoft C++ compiler. Compile (Press F7”) and run this SW (F5) and determine the correct COM port using Windows Device Manager and enter this port number in the Proximity Host application (DOS window).
"

Which tool do you mean?

All Dialog software, SDKs and Manuals are at Software downloads

You do have to register first using the link provided on that page and then wait for the registration to be approved by Dialog (it's a quick process)
If you're not logged in there you won't have access to the files.
