To Antonio (or anyone else who can help):

Using BC4.5, I tried to compile TCBFUNCS.C (FW 7.01) using

BCC -c -ml -D__CLIPPER__ TCBFUNCS.C
(with and without the -D__CLIPPER__) but got the following errors:-

I am not a C programmer but PWORD etc are also in BC4.5's WINDOWS.H so I assume that is why BCC is giving the "multiple declaration" errors (eg)?

What do I need to do to compile TCBFUNCS.C? (I assume you managed to compile it successfully at your end).

TIA

No, not possible

As far as we know, the bcc 16 bits is a commercial product
