Why doesn't BC++ (whatever that is, Borland C++?) cooperate with
SmartDrive? What kind of memory does BC++ need? XMS? EMS? Both? You
might consider the Super PC-Kwik cache (also included in DR DOS 6.0.
Plug, plug! :-)). I think Super PC-Kwik can lend memory not only to
MS Windows, but also to other applications (I have no real experience
with this. I do not use Windows anymore, and I never lend my memory, it
is already small enough as it is! :-)).

P.S. I'm going on vacation, so do not expect any quick response to your
response.
