The version of sc.exe is not relevant (it's just a small wrapper around 
scppn). And scppn identifies itself as 8.30.11n.

Depends. If you need to maintain multiple compilers, then you should keep
them separate.

I install mine to
\Programs\dm\dmJnn\dm - where J is the major and nn is the minor

Examples are P:\Programs\dm\dm829\dm, P:\Programs\dm\dm826\dm

If you don't need to do that, then I strongly suggest running just the one,
and in that case you can either overwrite, or delete and install anew. I
guess it depends whether you assume Walter will not forget to leave anything
out of the new version's zip, which is a reasonable assumption in my
experience.

Being very cagey, however, I always install to a separate directory even
when I don't need multiple versions on a particular machine, so that I can
then run a recursive difference - using Visual SourceSafe 6 - to see if
there're any large chunks missing.

Sorry for the far-too-long answer. Short one is, delete the old and install
fresh, making sure to backup anything you've added/changed first

Use Matthew solution but change the lines
    #error 8.28
to
    #pragma message ( "DMC version 8.28" )

Actually, the honest answer is that I'm a bit compiler-detection obsessed,
given the amount of cross-everything library work I do, so that was the
first idea that popped into my head. ;)
