#Hi,
#
#I posted this query a couple of weeks ago and I don't seem to get any
#reply (Maybe it got lost somewhere in the net :>). So here goes again.
#
#I saw that in Borland's C++ 3.1, there are a couple of custom controls
#which I think are rather neat ( 3-D Shaded Box, etc ) which I would like
#to use in building my Win 3.1 applications. However, due to certain
#constrains and project requirements, I had to use MS C7 for development.
#
#The QUESTION is "Can I make use of these custom controls in MSC or is
#there another way out?"

	Yes you can! You may not be able to integrate BWCC.DLL with the
MSC Dialog Editor but you can manually modify the dialog file and use
appropriate BwCC control classes and styles.

	After that, include bwcc.h in your header file and then add
bwcc.lib to your link options. Also make sure bwcc.dll can be found in
the current directory when the app starts or in the path.

Examples: link options

	/align:16 /NOD PLAYCD USERCODE MCICDA SUPERCLS ,PLAYCD.EXE ,, LIBW MLIBCEW bwcc mmsystem, PLAYCD.DEF

Examples: dialog file
