I'm using BC++ 5.02 and want to use CancelIo to abort pending
async reads on a messaging queue.  CancelIo is is located in
kernel32.dll and defined in winbase.h in the Visual Studio set
of include files.  BC's winbase.h, however, does not include it.

I tried copying its definition from the MS SDK files and 
recreating what I thought was the correct lib file, but the 
linker still can't find CancelIo and reports it as an
unresolved external.  

I also tried PurgeComm, which is defined in BC's winbase.h, as
a substitute, but it returns with a "failed" code.  

Any ideas?
