  With Turbo C 2.0 I have successfully been using the far heap for
  data up to 1 meg of ram.  I am troubled that I can't seem to get
  to the ram above 1 meg.  Is this the end of my rope?  I was hoping
  that Borland C++ will be able to farmalloc above 1 meg.  Can it
  happen?  This is very disturbing.  The data that I am parsing has
  the capability to be quite large at times and I don't wish not to 
  be limited to conventional memory.
