    Question

    I wondered if Borland C++ 4.5 is for dos applications only, or I can write Win32(Win98, Win2000 etc.) apps in it to???
    I know that you can write a Win32 app, but don't know what to put in the .def file, and if the should use the same "language" as I use for dos apps?????

    .DEF files are only if you're making a DLL. I'm sure BC++ 4.5 makes Windows programs too...check the linker documentation.

    Anyway, here's two examples (you'll need to use the source files only!):

    http://www.parksie.uklinux.net/RawDlg.zip

    They're two ways of achieving similar things. MSDN has loads more detailed info, if you need it (well...look anyway!)
