<< I am running VC++ 1.1 on NT. My assumption (correct me if I am wrong) is that I can target 16 bit apps.>> Nope. VCNT builds *only* 32-bit apps. If you stay within the Win32s subset of functions, these 32-bit executables can run under 16-bit Windows with the Win32s support installed, but they are still 32-bit NT executables. If you want to build 16-bit apps that can run under straight Windows or under DOS, you need the 16-bit MSVC product. FWIW, there's no such thing as "VC++ 1.1"; the current (and only) version of VCNT is 1.0.
