subject: DOSCALL.LIB PROBLEM

PE>; If this code is compiled with BCOS2 1.5 as follows:
PE>; tasm prob
PE>; tlink prob,,,e:\bcos2\lib\os2.lib
PE>; it works

PE>; If compiled as
PE>; tasm prob
PE>; tlink prob,,,e:\os2\doscalls.lib
PE>; it gets a trap 5.

I think I know the answer to this one.  You are assembling a 32 bit
program but linking it to a 16 bit library without any thunking, using a
different calling and return system.  I think DOSCALLS.LIB is a __pascal
calling and return procedure along with the 16 bit code.
