Borland for Dos in an OS/2 Session

Comment:
I am trying to use my favourite C++ compiler for dos in an OS/2 session and OS/2 displays and that the program can not be run in an os/2 session. What can I do to fix this. I know OS/2 dos programs that were made in ms-dos can run in an os/2 session. Thanks in advance.

Well, there's a confusion...
OS/2 can run DOS programs (such as BC++), in a DOS session. If you have installed dos support, you'll be able to set the DOS session in the BC++ program (or shortcut) properties. Remember : you won't be able to make OS/2 apps with BC++ for DOS. To do this, you'll have to get an OS/2 C++ compiler !
