     I called SAS, and they said that they had not decided on their Lattice C++
SAS C++ upgrade plan yet, but that they would probably have one.
     Being that "curious programmer with no C++ experience, but modest C
experience," I bought the package.  I certainly hope that they upgrade it, but
if they don't, then I still have a cheap C++ compiler.
