you have to first create the .exe, which means building a Makefile.def in the OpenSees sirectory (old examples are in the OpenSees/MAKES) directory.

you will also need to make sure tcl is installed along with the headers and libraries for it.

I didnt get you properly about .exe file and OpenSees directory...

In the bin folder of Tcl i found these exe files
base-tcl8.5-thread-win32-ix86.exe
base-tk8.5-thread-win32-ix86.exe
tclsh85.exe
teacup.exe
wish85.exe
yup Tcl is installed with headers and library files..

And I don't have separate directory for OpenSees.. I just have an OpenSees.exe file which i stored in some folder
