You don't say whether your problem is while compiling a C++ program
or while executing it.  In the former case, buy a C++ which supports
extended memory  (Glock via Imagesoft already has this and when our C++ --
Comeau C++ 2.0  -- is release for DOS this week or next it will include
this as well).  In the latter case, you could buy a memory extender yourself
and extend your programs relatively easily (in some cases absolutely no work
is necessary).  I'd imagine there's also drivers or whatnot out there to
give you LIM support as well.
