This is my first go on the net.. so I hope I don't make
any mistakes!

I have been trying to convert tp5.5 programs to TPW using the 
simple wincrt unit.  The problem is that even on fairly small
programs (those which tp5.5 says have a data size of about
30k) I have been receiving "Data segment too large" messages at the
end of compilation.

If these compiled fine under tp5.5.. why shouldnt they work under
TPW..  Do I have to re-write them using pointers and dynamic
techniques?  (I'd really rather not..)

At the moment all I want to do is produce a very simple windows
application.. I'll play around with the more sophisticated aspects
of TPW when i have this sorted out..

Many thanks

Gray
