I Have a question for the general MicroSoft C programming
community: 

I am trying to port a program of mine over to MS C 5.1, and I
have some rather large, unweildy macros. When I try to compile, I
get MSC bitching at me because it ran out of macro expansion space.
Is there *any* way at all to up this limit? Rewriting the macros would
require a *major* rewrite that I just don't want to do....

This has been the *only* compiler that I have run across that can't
expand these things....

Please e-mail any and all responses. Thanks in advance.
