Is there something special i have to do to get the compiler to find
the specified include files?  I am trying use to use the BIOS.H file.
If i do a #include <bios.h> the compiler complains it cant find the
attributes im using _COM_SEND etc.
I have also tried doing #include "bios.h" and moving the file to the
same folder, same output.  Is there some switch im missing?  Right now
im just running DMC.exe main, for my file main.c.

- Command Line?
- IDDE?

Do you have environment variable INCLUDE set?

Do you have an sc.ini in the ~/bin directory?

If so, what does it contain?

I do not have the environmental variable set. I was under the
impression if you either had the file in the same directory or had
the sc.ini you did not need to do this.

My sc.ini contains:
[Version]
version=7.51 Build 020

[Environment]
PATH=%PATH%;"% P%\..\bin"
BIN="% P%\..\bin"
INCLUDE="% P%\..\include";"% P%\..\mfc\include";%INCLUDE%
LIB="% P%\..\lib";"% P%\..\mfc\lib";%LIB%
HELP="% P%\..\help"

Thanks,

I'm not an expert, but I think that the problem is that
what's in bios.h is disabled when you have __NT__ defined,
and I think it is by default.

The bios functions only are defined for real mode programming, not for Win32.
