I am in need of a DOS Extender which is Borland C++ compatible. I am 
not too familiar with what these items are supposed to do, but I believe
that they will allow me to transparently access gobs and gobs of memory.

DOS Extenders are able to do this by running DOS programs in protected
mode.

Apparently AL WILLIAMS has published a book called DOS 5.0 DEVELOPER'S
GUIDE which has some simple Extender code in it. I cannot locate this book
quickly or easily.

Could people out there send me comments on either DOS Extender packages,
or the code in the aforementioned book. I will summarize the results.
Please include limitations and merits, as well as a brief synopsis of
available routines.

Thank very much,
William C. Schmidt
