Hi all...

Thanks for all who helped me with the memory management stuff in Windows,
especially Brad of NASA - who promptly answered my SOS message even at
1:30 in the morning.

I've now "migrated" to large memory model as my Windows application needs
large memory for data. My application is to be run on a dedicated PC
and hence I don't have to worry about not being able to run multiple
instances of it under the large model.

Microsoft C/C++ and its MFC library actually comes with .lib's for the
different memory models. We can actually use mixed models by simply
utilising the "_f*" set of functions like _fmemcpy(), _fstrcpy() etc for
far access from within a small or medium model. Correct me if I am
wrong.

My only doubt is that I have those ?LIBCE.LIB library files. Why my
linker keeps saying that the ?LIBCA.LIB file not found ? I suspect
that this is due to the comm library which I linked with. If I just ignore
that message and force it to link with the ?LIBCE.LIB it works fine
thus far. Just dunno whats wrong. Anyone can tell me why ?

Merry Xmas !
