Hello, Just received Digitalmars CD.  Working my way through the lessons.

However Lesson 10. Create a Dos appliation.

When I "Rebuild All" tmldos.prj, I get the success message but then follows:-

"Cannot create DOS application window"

Im running ME windows, and pretty sure im using
the 16bit compiler.

Can anyone help

Kind regards

Paul Warren

The 16 bit IDDE system needs to run under win32s for many functions. However, the console tools all work fine generating 16 bit apps from 32 bit Windows.
