Hello! I'm trying to install Borland C++ 5.5 free compiler into my RH7 Linux box but I can't get it to work. Running the installer brings a blank dialog with "Prev", "Next" and "Cancel" buttons but nothing more.. and pressing the buttons doesn't do anything and the dialog doesn't close. I waited for more than 15 minutes (I read it in FAQ somewhere..) but still nothing happens. From Wine application database I found out that Borland C++ should work with Wine.. or am I wrong? And even if I get BC++ 5.5 installed on Linux will it mean that I can develop Win32 applications with it? Teemu Hiltunen

From Wine application database I found out that Borland >C++ should work with Wine.. or am I wrong?Check it again. You may find that it was Bc 3.1.>And even if I get BC++ 5.5 installed on Linux will it mean that I can >develop Win32 applications with it?I don't think so. Bc 5.5 has a bug that prevents it to run under Wine currently. That's the kind of feature that the Wine project often rejects. Gerard
