I'm interested in hearing BORLANDs views on this (Am I even in the correct
newsgroup?)

For a while I've been hearing vague promisses from my local BORLAND office
the BORLAND C++ would give me the option for 32bit code. (This implies to me
that it would have to support some DOS extender, and behave socially towards
other 32bit programs E.G. 386max, QEMM, etc). I've been waiting for the day
especially since trying to use TD386, I have to re-configure my system
(incidentally loosing memory, and networking) to use the debugger. This isn't
a particularly good way to do things when debugging networking programms, or
programms that use EMS.

I also have the problem of needing to write ADS interface programs for AUTOCAD
and would be forced to move to ZORTECH, or HIGH C to do this.

Are BORLAND planning to give us a 32bit compiler, and If so which of the many
standards will it follow.
