- OK. Upon reading "Writing Windows Device Drivers", I learned alot
- about how device drivers work but It did not seem to say too much on the
- actual structure of the device driver (namely DLL's and stuff like that).
- I have seen bits and pieces of info in the Borland on-line help referring to
- procedures such as DriverProc() within the DLL and other such stuff but not
- a whole lot of info on that. Another thing that was sort of depressing is
- that it stated in order to write a VxD, I HAD to have the DDK. I am very
- short on money at the presnt and I doubt that my scool would be willing to
- pick one of those up for me. I was wondering if there was any way possible
- to do that with Borland c++ 3.1.
-
- In case you're wondering, the device driver I am trying to make
- is just an Interupt Service Routine. However, instead of just putting it
- into my program code, I am trying ot learn something new and write it into
- a device driver.

- Thanks...
