You posted to three groups, and all of them incorrect.  It doesn't
belong on language groups like this one or comp.lang.c at all, because
it is not part of the language.  A Borland specific group is the right
place, if you had actually gotten the correct Borland group, which you
did not.  This is not a C++ Builder question because Builder can't
even call this non-standard, MS-DOS specific function.

Try news:borland.public.cpp.language for all of their C and C++
compilers except Builder.
