Don't knock the Turbo >product any more than it deserves. I wasn't aware that anyone was 'knocking' anything; merely trying to help the poor guy understand what the current product line looks like. What version is that User's Guide you have? I have one like that, too, that shipped with the Turbo C++ 1.0 PROFESSIONAL package (but the debugger is Turbo Debugger 2.0). This is the package that is called BORLAND C++ 3.1, in its current incarnation. [Presumably the Turbo Pascal line has a debugger -- do they share the same one? In fact, they may still call it Turbo Debugger when it ships with the Borland C++ bundle -- my docs for that are at home, and I never paid any attention before.] -- "Insisting on perfect safety is for people who don't have the balls to live in the real world." -- Mary Shafer, NASA Ames Dryden ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fred.McCall@dseg.ti.com - I don't speak for others and they don't speak for me.
