Since you have the Borland Compiler, already, it will be the simplest to =
use.  If you click on the icon in the download file, it should =
self-install.  Then, the only thing you have to do is change your =
autoexec.bat file to include the compiler in the PATH statement.  =
Something like "PATH=3DC:\Borland\Bcc55\Bin; %PATH%.

Also, you need to write two small configuration files in \Bin, =
bcc32.cfg, and ilink.cfg.  The instructions on how to do it are at the =
Borland site, where you made the download. =20

All these things need to be done, for the compiler to access the various =
libraries it needs.

good luck
