I don't know anything about Turbo Vision, so I don't know 
whether sLabel is something you created yourself or whether 
it already is in the library. But what the compiler says is 
that you derive from class TLabel, which only has a 
non-default constructor, i.e. it has only (a) constructor(s) 
that take(s) (an) argument(s). And that means that you have 
to provide a constructor for sLabel that will initialise the 
base class with those required arguments.

Sorry for all the ().
