Burkley) Organization: Naval Ocean Systems Center, San Diego Lines: 12 Howdy boys and girls, I need to write some memory intensive programs for use on a 386 clone. I have access to some older compilers (Microsoft C and Fortran) that seem to have been designed with the 286 in mind. My question is whether there are any products that will allow me to use my current compilers to create large programs (over 2 Meg) and then run them under DOS 4.01. I know I can get 386 specific versions of languages (like WATCOM) that can be used with a DOS extender to achieve this, but the price is quite high. Your help is appreciated. -Joe Burkley
