I would like to know where all the help files of > borland c++ are. The usage of Borland product(s) is partially described in some help files from Borland ($BCBROOT\help). Most of the platform issues are covered in MS help files shipped with your BC (same location).

The answer depends on the version of your Borland compiler: early ones (before MS has jumped in the game) had good and helpful document files with self-explanatory examples (OS details from 3rd parties were also available). These days, I find more and more things I can get done faster with MSC, so NSDN became a popular bookmark in my browsers. What remains true - at least for myself - is that the best source of helpful information about compiler and coding in general is all the include files shipped as a part of the package (*.asm *.c *.cc *.inc *.h ... ) and some binaries ( *.obj *.lib *.dll) as well. > > Regards, > Sreejesh. > > .
