While struggling with parameter types i tried to use the help system on the OS/2 API within the Programmer's Workbench in Microsoft C v6.0. In the Help system I tried to access the API help - the system told me that it couldn't find the file msos2.hlp. After searching my disks and the distribution disks, I could find no trace. I ame using IBM OS/2 1.2. I could not find any equivalent sounding file in the OS/2 system. Is the problem related to the fact that we have two diverging supplies of the OS? How can I get a help file that will give me access to the OS/2 API help?
