 I've got a C compiler and windows SDK for Windows 3.0 and now Windows 3.1 
comes out with lots of neat new things that I'd like to use
(e.g. TrueType, Dialog boxes, object linking).   Where do I find the 
'manual pages' (to use a unixism) for these new functions?   Do I have to 
buy a new SDK or C compiler???  I'm sure that 99% of windows purchasers don't 
care about writing windows programs and that is why the documentation isn't
provided with the software, however there *should* be an easy way to 
get it (I would hope).

You'll need to get the new SDK to access the new calls and dialog boxes.
I'm not sure about availabilty though.  Since you have the 3.0 SDK,
call Microsoft and ask about the upgrade path.  I know they have a 
1-800 number, I just don't know it off hand.
