- Are you using BORLAND C++ 3.0 or something else? If it is Borland, then
- linking .lib files with the IDE is as simple as adding the .lib to your
- project (and including any needed header files in your source). I'm not
- sure what you mean by your last comment, but you can use any of the
- Borland .libs from either the command line linker or the IDE. Read your
- manual or on-line help for more details on using libraries, as it is
- covered well.
