Thanks a lot, Alex, that finally was a helpful answer!

FYI, in a batch file I'm now doing:

---8<---

: Search QTDIR first, then some guessed paths.
set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=%QTDIR%;C:\Qt\4.5.2;C:\Qt\4.5.1;C:\Qt\4.5.0;%CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH%

: Generate the project files in the output directory.
pushd VS2008-Win32
cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" ..
if errorlevel 1 pause
popd

---8<---

CMake would search QTDIR itself, but only *after* CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, which is why I made QTDIR the first path in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. This now seems to work how I would like it to work.

Thanks again.
