Not completely I think. Noticing the lack of compiling speed with CSet++, I
thought it might be handy to compile with Borland first (when I program a
real thing under OS/2) and finally in CSet for the execution speed of the
program. If BC does not do this automatically, I would get errors I did not
expect. OTOH, I am not sure if it would gain much time during development
and I doubt it I will use a 16-bit DLL, so it is indeed a bit of a
non-issue 

But thanxs for the correction of my incorrect vision of typecast results.
