Okay, it's 1:1. Who's next.....? I can hardly argue against you, when you say this. It's a technical problem. On source level, the C++ code is good, isn't it? I don't know what problems you face, when you compile a C++ program. You use two or more compilers together? Then you need to mark those methods and/or functions, which you want to use in other module, as exported. (Declarations extern "C", static, __cdecl helps everytime). Also, C is not so compatible too, since Watcom C - one of the best compilers - doesn't follow the standard of (all) other compilers. I wonder, how much Sam C is compatible..... Aley
