Yes.  You can order an upgrade to Turbo C++ 1.01 directly from Borland,
they ship it FedEx at no charge.  Contact Borland in one of the ways
mentioned in your manual (I think it is Getting Started) and give them your
serial #; they will send you the new version.

NB: This is not a patch.  You get 8 new distribution disks.

If the =/About command in TC or the header message of TCC says it is "Turbo
C++ version 1.00", you should order the upgrade.

I hope this solves yours and any other's similar problems.
