Not for 2.1 but for 1.3. Anyway it's really excellent book! I studied PM
programming using the only that book and found it very helpfull and practice.

If you will not use SOM, WPS programming and a few number of WARP specific
functions you won't get in any serious troubles. The most problem you'll catch
is function parameters incompatibility. But it's enough to look through WARP
toolkit include files to find the correct arguments.

 JM> BTW, I am using Watcom C++ v10.5

I use Watcom 10.0 and IBM C/C++ Set. Both work fine.
