Important information for using V with 
Borland C++ Version 5.0 or later

It is important to compile your V applications using
the same compilation options that are used with the V
library.  For any V project, the following settings
(from Options:Project Options menu) are needed for
any V application. (You should substitute appropriate
directories for your source and installation, of course.)

* Directories
    Source Directories
      Include: c:\bc5\include;c:\v\includew;c:\yourappdir
      Library: c:\bc5\lib
      Source: (whatever - none necessarily needed)
    Output directores:
      Intermediate: c:\yourappdir\obj	(or whatever)
      Final: c:\yourappdir\bin          (or whatever)

* Compiler
    nothing critical - defaults OK

* 32-bit Compiler
    Processor
      Instruction set:  (i486 or later)
      Data alignment: Word (2-byte)     ! VERY IMPORTANT !
       (Note: word alignment is critical because of some
        structure alignments required by the Windows API.)
     Calling convention: C

* Remaining settings
    nothing critical - defaults OK

You need to add each file and the V vbcc32.lib to your
project in the Project View. If you specify full paths when
adding to the Project View, you won't need to change the
Project Options Source path.

If I left out anything critical, I'd appreciate knowing.
As far as I can tell, these setting will result in a working
V application (if the app is correct, of course).
