I was hoping if someone has any experience with the following:

I want to link a C(Borland Turbo C) routine with a
BASIC routine under Microsoft 3.3
For exmaple, you have the following simple code:

main()
{
  basic_sub()
}

which calls a subroutine written in BASIC.
Does the C compiler use the same calling 
convention as the BASIC? I'm not much of an
expert on BASIC, or is it the case that the two compilers
use different conventions(e.g., arguments are in
different places, or results are expected in
different places).
