Can you use Microsoft C version 5.5 with the Windows SDK version 3.0? Or do you need some special header files to allow compatibility from Microsoft? Also, I've heard conflicting reports of special academic prices on the SDK. Does a student discount exist for Windows Developing? Thanks for all insights, Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Tierney "Any technology without some attendant risk <MBT3@PSUVM.PSU.EDU> of misuse is probably trivial" - Louise Kohl

Thanks for all insights, The Windows SDK 3.0 is availiable for $250 on student discount. Microsoft runs just about all their software at half-price for students. I have had some problems with the header files with MS-C 5.0. The manual states compatibility for MSC 5.1 and above so I would expect that 5.5 would work. However, since I have not tried it it does not work :-) -----Dale Rogerson----

Thanks for all insights, What is MSC 5.5? I know you can use either 5.1 or 6.0 with the SDK, but I never heard of 5.5.

I didn't know there's an MSC version 5.5. I thought after 5.1 is 6.0. ;-). Regards, ## Life is fast enough as it is ........ Peter Lim. ## ....

Yes, there seems to be a version 5.5 and I've seen the discs around here on someone's desk. I think that it must have come with one of the SDKs that we have. Probably the OS/2 SDK. -- Andy Toy, Mortice Kern Systems Inc., Internet: andy@mks.com 35 King Street North, Waterloo, UUCP: uunet!watmath!mks!andy Ontario, CANADA N2J 2W9 Phone: 519-884-2251 FAX: 519-884-8861
