  I have Visual C++, but it doesn't contain anything called HC31.*, and its
icon display says nothing about a help-compiler. It came on 14 floppies. The
component files of my Visual C are all dated 1993 Feb 8 at time 1.01.00, but
the labels on the floppies all say "20/2/95"; a sticker (which looks like the
manufacturer put it there) on top of the outside box says "21-02-05". Do I
need to get an upgrade, or what? How do I get it? What should I ask for? What
faults in it have been corrected between my version and the latest version?
