Can any one help me with Zortech C++ and Windows 3. I can compile and link the example program, but when I try to run it, it simply does nothing. I'm using a HP Vectra (386 I think, with 4 Mbytes of RAM, and DOS 3.30) (doesn't make any difference does it...). The thing that worries me is that after linking in all the object code, the final program is only 29K long. -- jason ------------------------------------------------- No. 3 Crash test dummy (nose resiliance testing) -------------------------------------------------

This included a batch file that took apart ZLS.LIB, ZLM.LIB, and ZLV.LIB combined them with parts from the SLIBCEW.LIB, MLIBCEW.LIB, and LLIBCEW.LIB that came with the SDK. You can then use the new ZL?W.LIB files that are produced together with the normal LIBW.LIB and get executables that work just great. After I got WIN3KIT.COM I've had no problems aside from Windows programming problems. No one can get away from those. P.S. I wouldn't let a size of 29K faze me. My application that decodes GIF files and displays them is only 57K. It has a file select box, about box, scroll bars, dithering, etc. John Munsch
