Hi Steve,

You will need the DOS extender patch applied if you don't already have
it. Then you need to compile from the DOS command line, because the
IDE doesn't know that the DOS extender has been fixed.

The optimal solution is to buy the Watcom compiler, since it works for
DOS, Windows, OS/2 and a slew of other systems. It also produces
better object code than does Visual C++.

Regards

Dave
