I am developing an application to run under MS Windows 3.0, and I am trying to put the stack in a segment of its very own. I am using large model, and the /Aw flag so the compiler knows that the stack is not the same as the default data segment, but I am unable to get the linker to create a separate stack segment. The documentation is absolutely useless in this regard, and Microsoft technical support was equally uninformative ("duh, try using the /Aw option on the compiler..."). Has anyone here done this, and if so, could they tell me (and everyone else if you think everyone else would be interested) how. Thanks in advance. Stefan Vorkoetter (smvorkoetter@daisy.waterloo.edu)

I believe that this is "impossible" unless you want to do stack-switching yourself, eg. GlobalAlloc() and switch SS as appropriate. Richard.
