My mistake: I added the lines

   unsigned int amajor, aminor, abeta;
   unsigned int cmajor, cminor, cbeta;
   ACE_TCHAR* name;

   amajor = ACE::major_version();
   aminor = ACE::minor_version();
   abeta  = ACE::beta_version();
   name   = (ACE_TCHAR*)ACE::compiler_name();
   cmajor = ACE::compiler_major_version();
   cminor = ACE::compiler_minor_version();
   cbeta  = ACE::compiler_beta_version();

   printf ("ACE: %d.%d.%d Compiler: %s %d.%d.%d\n\n", amajor, aminor,
abeta, name,
      cmajor, cminor, cbeta);

to my program and found that I am using:

ACE: 5.4.8 Compiler: Visual C++ 7.10.0
