The compiler is telling you that it doesn't know of any type named
PtrArray [CPtrArray]. That's because CPtrArray is an MFC class, not 
readily available in BCB. I think it's possible to patch MFC to be 
compilable by BCB, but I've never tried it. Alternatives would be to 
write your own compatible CPtrArray class or modify the code to use a 
different container, such as an STL vector.

BCB-compatible version of MFC ships with it.

So it is. (I was thinking of Borland C++ 5.) I guess the answer is to 
#include <afx.h> to bring in the definition of CPtrArray, make sure MFC 
Compatability is enabled in the project options and maybe some other things.
