Martin Ambuhl: Thanks for your suggestion on adding the "using namespace std;" line. This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. Now my compiler recognizes the string functions of the "#include <string>" line. This answer raises new questions. What exactly does "using namespace std;" mean? Why didn't I need it before on what I suspect was an earlier version of DJGPP? If a new version of DJGPP requiring this line was added recently, why was the change necessary? It threw me for a loop.
