Watcom 11c compiles with 30000A 
LCC compiles with 400000
I havent compiled a Borland version "I did but deleted it"

I dont see any difference in any controls here but thats not to say there
arent any. I currently can not run any Win32lib programs with 2.3 alpha
source that is compiled with any of the supported compilers.
But most of the API code Ive written "recently" seems to run fine on Watcom and
LCC
compiled source versions.
.
There are some issues with the source but I think Rob is aware of these, if he
isnt,
he is now.

BTW, Rob
One thing I would like to see in the Beta or Final release is a "with handle"
to Close the handles to interpreted / run programs. Maybe I'll whip something up
when I get the time.
