Thank you for all your replies. I have now updated to boost_1_41 and as you said it only uses Topology. Only problem I have now is at compile time I get an error within the Fruchterman_Reigold algorithm itself given below.
..\boost_1_41_0\boost\graph\fruchterman_reingold.hpp|95|error: 'dimensions' is not a member of 'point'|
It is pointing to the BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT within the Fruchterman_Reingold algorithm as shown below.

PS I hope there is no problems viewing this email. I am not sure what happened to the first post as I had not used any font coloring as such.
