I would like to try compiling a 32-bit dos application that will run in pure dos 6.x (i think 6.2 is what i have).

I know you have to use a 32-bit extender like Dos/4gw.

I am using Borland Turbo C++ 3.0

What exactly would i have to do?

Or better yet, is a good site on this kind of thing?

I have programmed quite alot, but it has always been in the comfort of Visual C++ 6.0 so I never really had to do a whole lot of configuring...just crunching code :)
 
Ok maybe i should clarify a bit.

I want to write a 32-bit application for Dos 6.2 .
I know dos by itself cannot do 32 bit stuff.
so here is my unassuming questions:
- Can I use Borland Turbo C++ 3.1 for what I want to do.
- How do i use a dos 32bit extender with my application so that it will run?

thanks to anyone who relies!!!!!!!
