Assuming the lib file is a static library then you would have to either 1) compile the lib's source code using BCB's compiler, or 2) wrap the lib in a Watcom-compiled DLL. If the lib is an import lib, on the other hand, then no conversion is needed. Simply run the associated DLL through BCB's IMPLIB utilty to generate a compatible lib file. Gambit
