- Would you oblige me (and I presume other interested readers)
- by Generating a "simple" MDI "file editor" client using MSVC,
- then compiling it under BC5, then running it, all the while
- keeping a log of the errors, etc.? (I'd do this, but I haven't
- received my copy of BC5 yet).

- Make sure that the warnings et al reported by BC5 are not spurious.
- Using Purify or Bounds-Checker can validate this, or by tracing
- through the calls for one of the reported errors to be sure that
- t's correct. I'd want to be sure I trusted CodeGuard before I
- made any sweeping decisions like that.
