I earlier posted a request for information on a problem I was having with
linking the MS 'C' windows library supplied with the MS SDK.  I received
several replies.  Just in case anyone else is having a similar problem I 
thought I'd post the solution to my problem.
    I am using MS 'C' vs 5.1.  This comes with two linkers.  The one that
is installed won't actually link the above named library.  The other linker
, the segmented linker I think it's called, is required.  This is found on
the utilities 1 disk that comes with MS 'C'.  I now realise that this 
"problem" is mentioned in the SDK documentation but alas I'm not one to
delve too deeply into documentation....  Thanks to all who replied - 
everything is now working ok.
