I posted about 10 days ago that I had contacted Borland and they said they
would ship the Help Compiler, but it would be 3-4 weeks.  They lied, it
actually took 8 days.  I received the help compiler last Friday, and they
also threw in a second disk with a new and improved TDW module that fixed
some bugs.  It came with yet another book (#10 by my count) and the Petzold
discount coupon.  I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but at least
I have it.
