0.9.7c

No, my install is right off the original C++Builder 5 distrib CD
(Build 12.34)

Um. No. What's implib? :) I am new to the C++Builder environment. I
had used MSVC several years ago (v 1.5 ad 2). I've spent the last
several years in C on Linux however, so I'm still coming back up to
speed in Windows programming.

Yes, I did. I copied them to borland's /include under /openssl from
there.

Yes.

I forget. I will have to install it again and test for this.

GUI mode.

Yes, I have some VCL components in my app, and have included vcl.h

I'l have to install it again and try this as well.

My latest version of MSVC is vers 2 and I wasn't considering even
trying that one.

However, I wans't tryiing to use the dlls. I copied the 2 .lib files
to
Borlands /Lib directory and have those included in the project.

Should I not use the lib files?

Thanks,
