- Another question on something I've read but I forgot the answer and
- figure it'll help all...
-
- Are these the same thing ...BPW7 = TPW1.5 ???
-
- There has been a number of questions addressing getting better
- documentation on developing programs for windows and IF these two
- products are the same, then I can buy a TPW 1.5 book. As it was
- I bought the documentation from Borland API calls (their literature btw,
- says that it documents what the on-line says) which is NOT quite TRUE!
- and I feel as though I was taken by Borland. Folks, Borland merely
- republished the documentation that they include for C++ (at least that's
- what I can gather). Additionally, they reference their calls both for C
- and MS Pascal (<===Does this make sense, one vendor giving syntax calls
- from another vendor's point of view...)
-
- Borland, how about you document what is in the on-line help and put that
- in a book! I was quite frustated that this last weekend while looking up
- material, that the book referenced reading the "on-line" documentation.
-
- Seeking answers,
-
