I am considering buying Turbo C++, but I need to link to a library
that is compiled with Microsoft C.  Specifically, I need to link
to the C interface library packaged with the KnowledgeMan database
system.  (This library is called TBL; it used to be called KC.)
As I understand, Turbo C, and thus I assume Turbo C++, sometimes
works with libraries compiled with Microsoft C and sometimes does't.
Could anyone please report their experiences using Turbo C with
libraries compiled with Microsoft C.  Are there any rules as to
when things work and when they don't?  Thank you.
