It is possible to develop Windows applications under SCO Unix, but not using the Microsoft SDK - the MS libraries are specific to PC's. There is a UK company that has produced an SDK which you can use to write MS Windows programs, or rather Unix programs which display to PC's using Microsoft Windows routines. I work for the company, VisionWare Ltd, and so you can't think of this as being completely unbiased on the matter, but you can mail me if you want to find out more about the product. Programs developed in it require a run-time environment, called PC-Connect, which lives on both the unix host and the PC. >Les Moss moss@tti.com >Citicorp TTI >3100 Ocean Park Blvd. (213) 450-9111, ext. 2982 >Santa Monica, CA 90405 Maggie Thomas mags@visionware.co.uk VisionWare Ltd Phone: +44-(0)532-788858 Fax: +44-(0)532-304676

There is >using the Microsoft SDK - the MS libroaries are specific to PC's. I think what the questioner had in mind was cross-compiling windows applications on the unix system. To actually run windows application on the Unix box one would have to run windows on the unix machine.
