DOS was 16bit, but bcc32 is for 32bit programs. So please elaborate: - Which version of Borland C++ are you using? - Where on your disk did you install it? - Do you mean "DOS" when you write "Dos", or do you want to create a console program to be launched from the Windows command prompt? Or something different? .
