I've got some strange problems with BC++ 3.0 and TPW. If anyone knows
a net address where I could send for help, please forward it to me.
Here are some of my problems. Post if you have solutions to these, or
similar problems.

* TDW -- I'm trying to track an Exc. 13 bug in some code which also
uses the 80x87. Whenever I try to trace into the code, I get a
"terminated, exit code 0", whenever I hit an fwait (with the 80x87
stack empty).  And when I don't trace into the code, I get the
Exception 13. Not fun.

* TCW, TPW -- The Borland-style dialog boxes are hosed in Win31. Is
there a bug fix to this or what? In addition, these guys really can't
handle the new font scheme very well.

* TCW -- the moving windows problem: I'll iconify a window in TCW, and
when I bring it back, it "disappears"; that is, it gets deiconified to
some random place on this huge TCW desktop (my only hint this was true
is that scroll bars get added to the desktop). Since I don't want to
spend 30 minutes in nowhere land looking for my window, I am forced to
cascade or tile the windows to get my "lost" window back to the "main"
part of the desktop.
