    Exclamation help with making Borland C++ compiler work

    everytime i attempt to run it, it starts a small dos window, loads it with lots of text and shuts down a split second after i run it, i then ran command.exe, and ran bcc32.exe and it gave me a list of commands, and i have no idea how to actually apply them, please help

    Within my IDE there is an option to have BC use an alternate assembly program to start up your code. There should be a command line switch that does this as well. You might try using that - I've experienced some issues w/o using the alternate startup code within Windows.

    try pausing the program before leaving such as:
    getch();

    I believe she means the Borland C++ won't start(the actual compiler, not her program)
