Subject: Q: Memory Access to DOS area running a go32 exec under windows ?

This is my first message to this list so please bear with me if this
is an obvious question

Problem: I need to find a way to get access to the DOS area when running
a go32 application under windows 3.1 . The sys/farptr.h functions will not
work nor will direct access from 0xe0000000 offsets - the documentation 
reflects this as well.
	My reason for doing this is to access a modified version of the async 
code and TSR so that I can do serial I/O. In fact any way that lets me do 
serial I/O while running a go32 exec from windows would also be a good 
answer...

			Thanks
