It would be easier to diagnose if we could see a copy of you makefile.

According to the Visual Studio help, under the entry in the Index for
"U1033", it says:

If a macro definition in the makefile contained an equal sign (=) without a
preceding name or if the name being defined is a macro that expands to
nothing, the following error occurs:
syntax error : '=' unexpected

There is a pretty complete reference manual for NMAKE in the Visual Studio
documentation.  Most error messages are documented and you can look them up
in the index by their code numbers.
