But I have already found a major flaw in it. If you have a graphics card with a resolution greater than 640x480 forget about using the debugger. After you exit your screen is messed up and windows is unusable. This forces you to exit and restart windows. This is totally unacceptable. I called Borland and the tech support person there blamed it on the dll that Borland got from Microsoft to do debugging. (When in trouble pass the buck) I then asked whether there was a fix in the works, because this IS A BUG, and she said that she could not tell me because they are relying on Microsoft. If you use TPW and you have a graphics card with resolution greater than 640x480 mail "bugs@borland.com" because this is a bug and it needs to be fixed, and maybe if they get enough e-mail they will not respond in a slothful manner. On another subject I tried to get the icons out of Winword but the resource toolkit informed me that it was not a win 3 app. What absolute rubbish! Is there a way around this, and what exactly is going on here? {I do have version 1.1a} Paul Magid
