    Tried adding #include <vcl.h> to your program?

    PS. If you selected C++ and Use VCL in the Console Wizard this is the problem. Try C and Console Application.

    i have been runnin it under unix since its the 1 thats workin right now, but my school unix server is REAL slow, so writing it in the joe editor, or any editor for that matter is a pain in the ***...its just easier to use borland since its in windows... and xwin32 is not working for me for some reason...oh well...

    The error says what's wrong...

    You need to link the correct library. Sorry I don't use that compiler... I wouldn't know what the library is called. Maybe "CRTLVCL.LIB"?
    Stay cool
    and be somebody's fool this year
