I just bought the Paradox Engine 1.0 from Borland. The documentation said it needs Turbo C 2.0 or higher or Microsoft C 5.1 Is Turbo C++ the next version of Turbo C 2.0 ? Anyone has experience with this? Is there any ftp sites out there that has Paradox Engine applications? Thanks for your help.

In the (online) documentation with TC++, it says that you must make a few changes to the header files, but they are clearly documented. Therefore, check the distribution disks (I don't remember the file), make the changes, and compile. The changes are bracketed off with conditional compliation, so it will still be backwards compatable Good luck ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Jochen Fritz | For though we live in the world, we do not | | joefritz@pawl.rpi.edu | wage war as the world does.-- 2 Cor. 10:3 | | usergk2s@rpitsmts.bitnet| You have heard it said, Love your neighbor | | Noah [the peace monger] | and hate your enemy.

Turbo C++ V1.0 is a new product, but, as I was told by Borland, you can effectively replace Turbo C 2.0 with Turbo C++ 1.0 as far as maintaining TC2.0 functionality. Personally, I'm going to install TC++ separately from TC2.0 and keep both around for a while. As good as Borland products are, version 1.0 compilers (from anyone) can't be trusted.
