It is supposed to be sent to registered users within a month or so. Negotiations for the help compiler weren't complete when the package was shipped. About windows.h slowing things down - use the precompiled headers option! I haven't bothered yet because my application, which includes windows.h still doesn't take more that about 20 - 30 seconds to compile & link. While everyone is saying that you "have to get the SDK to develop applications in BC++ 2.0" I'm developing applications without it. SO WHAT's THE DEAL: What is in the MS Windows SDK that isn't available in the BC++ 2.0 PACKAGE??????? Books on Windows Programming (yes - but I bought Petzold's for $30.00) WHAT ELSE??? Terrell
