I upgraded to Builder3 from BC4.5.  I have tried used the
IDETOBPR coversion utility to convert my 16 bit apps.
I can't get anything to compile, though.  I usually get
something like "RLINK32: Unsupported 16bit resource.."
No further info is available.  I thought I could compile my
older apps.  What do I need to do?  How do I call
16 bit function calls?

Thanks,

Dan

You don't BCB is 32-bit only.

Probably some .RES files are included in the project, and that are your old RES files
(compiled by the 16-bit resource compiler). Probably, if you remove the RES files
they will rebuild from the RC files (using the 32 bit resource compiler). That may
help. Don't forget to make a safety copy before deleting like a wildman.

How do you pronounce your last name?

For instance,

   if (DialogBox(hDllInst,"PromptDlg",lpDllParams->hWnd,PromptDlg) == IDOK)

generates an error saying it can't convert.  When I press Ctrl-F1 for help, the
topic seems to match what I have written.  Or if I write a 16-bit function call,
the help topic exists, but the call generates an error message.

What happened to seamless integration?  I gotta be missing something.
Does Builder 3 Prof actually do 16-bit?  Did I miss something on the
installation?  What's the deal with Installshield Lite on the CDROM -
why doesn't it install?

BTW, Llewellyn is pronounced "Lou-Wellen", at least in the USA.  In
Wales it is a little different.

Thanks,
