To begin you are in the wrong newsgroup.  This newsgroup is for the old
Borland C++ compiler.  What you have is the set of command line tools from
C++ Builder version 5.  C++ Builder newsgroups have the word 'cppbuilder' in
their name.  For instance:

    borland.public.cppbuilder.commandlinetools

It is common to build a program from many source files.  For a simple, 2
source file program just list both of the source files on the compiler's
command line.  The base name of the first will be the base name of the
executable.

For instance:
    bcc32 -W file1 file2
    builds file1.exe from file1.cpp and file2.cpp
    the -W means create a GUI (graphical) program

follow-ups set to borland.public.cppbuilder.commandlinetools
