    It worked for me with Borland 3.1, well i think you need a DOS 16/32 (i think) bit compiler to make it work. But when it ran, the text was all f****** up!

    search the c++ board for this. I have covered it at least twice since the new board came into existence. This board has tools to make your life a little easier.... one of which is the search facility.If you had used it you would have found your answer straight away.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
