I too am impressed with BC++ for Windows.

However on the negative side - the system cannot be used to build applications
that work reliably in real mode, which is unsupported by Borland.

Do they have plans to support real mode in the future?  Is there a way to
make a program gracefully exit if in real mode?  My application crashes
in real mode when I put up a dialog box - makes me wondor how I can put
up a "std or enh mode required" dialog box" if the program is run from
real mode???
