You need Borland's C++Builder at least version 5. I think we should
compile on the free/almost-free personal edition, but I use the
profesional edition. You DON'T need the enterprise edition. Can anyone
confirm that the personal version does indeed work? I think it is like
$69 bucks from Borland, and from your school bookstore it's either free
or like $30 bucks.
We'd so LOVE the help!!!
