I got a C++ book that recommended I use this compiler. I followed the
unzipping instructions in the faq, using unzip32.exe. I changed the LFN to
Y. The program is the first one in the C++ for dummies book and I get two
alternating errors. The first and most persistant says "Conversion.o No Such
File or Directory" The second one only comes up every so often and says
"this file includes at least one depreciated or antiquated header" Keep in
mind that this is the first C++ program that I've ever tried to write, and I
just coppied it out of the book, and a quick flip through the rest of the
chapter doesn't even tell me what a header is. But from looking at the faq,
I think the only two headers I have are <stdio.h> and <iostream.h>.

If someone would help me out here, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
Danny
