I think we're making it available for >free now. -- Eric I've since learned what the solution is: There is a replacement WINDEBUG.DLL available that allows TDW to run with Windows 3.1. You can get it from: Compuserve Genie Bix Borland BBS (408-439-9096) There is a document available describing the problems and solutions. You can get it from the above places (document number 868) as well as through calling tech support calling our techfax number (800-822-4269) request document 868 On the online systems, the file is called ti868.zip. I'm sure it is available for FTP from somewhere, I just don't know where. I'm calling around to find out where it is, and I'm sure someone will post something here describing the location. -- Eric Swenson (Borland R&D)
