Using extended memory to store program data

I make C/DOS programs using an old C compiler (QuickC version 2.5) and want to store data retrieved by a program dynamically in extended memory. Memory allocation functions provided with the compiler software, e.g., malloc(), only find memory space in conventional memory. Is there a procedure to use extended memory?

Thank you for any help.

So is your OS really DOS, or just some window running on top of win9x/NT/2K/XP ?
Because if you are, you seriously need a better compiler to take advantage of that.

But if you're really stuck in real DOS, then the first thing is to check the compiler docs to see if there is any "extended malloc" API calls for allocating memory in extended memory.
If there isn't, you'll need to read "Ralph Brown's Interrupt List" (google it). That tells you all you need to know about rummaging around in the innards of DOS and BIOS.
