- Gary,

- Yes you can do it with Borland C++ v4.5. You will need the NLM SDK
- and the latest version of Novell NLM Linker (NLMLINK.EXE). You should
- find it with the NLM SDK or with Netware. I suggest you get the
- Netware SDK CD because this contains lots more of value and at least
- one document on building NLMs with Borland C++.
