- Readers of comp.os.msdos.programmer may be able to give you more (or better)
- help.
-
- It would help if you gave some indication of the sorts of problems you are
- having - such as the compiler error messages, etc.
-
- Note that Borland and Microsoft often use different names, and even parameter
- orders for what are effectively the same MS-DOS specific functions, and the two
- company's graphics facilities are probably quite different.
-
- Your best bet may be to get a compiler that matches your book, or vice versa.
