I'm looking into the same problem, from what I can gather as of now, the
Intel Code Builder set (1-800-322-4871) is the only environment that will
support Windows in all modes. It is supposed to be available in the next
month or so.

My understanding is that to really interface to windows (not just run
as a DOS app), you still need to write a glue layer between the application
in protected mode, and the windows libraries which are in real mode. Does
anyone have any experience with this GUI Glue layer, or even better know
of a commercially available package to do it?

Cheers,
Ralph
