Ok, I tried and tried to get that boralnd CPP..  however, I hate that website
because it starts a download and then just hangs. It won't finish..  errr..  so I
went through all of my old floppies I had, not realizing that I even still had
them, and I found my old ORIGINAL copy of TCPP 3.0.. I was EXTREMLY happy when I
found that they still worked.. heh..  time to make a backup of this puppy.. :)

Anyhow, the trick worked. It compiled into a TINY program and I was able to
convert it to binary as I wanted. .THANKS!!!!!!
