MORE INFORMATION
Part 2: Notes on Applications

Using CodeView to Debug Applications on an 80286-Based System
To debug applications running on an 80286-based system, copy the following files to a directory on the 80286-based system:

CodeView for MS-DOS:

  CV.EXE EMD1D1.DLL EED1CAN.DLL EED1CXX.DLL NMD1PCD.DLL SHD1.DLL TLD1LOC.DLL CodeView for Windows (CVW):

  CVW4.EXE EMW0W0.DLL EEW0CAN.DLL EEW0CXX.DLL NMW0PCD.DLL SHW0.DLL TLW0LOC.DLL To use CVW on an 80286-based system, you must run CVW4.EXE using the /2 (dual display) option. Single-screen debugging in CVW is not supported under standard-mode Windows.

Using the Updated TCP/IP Protocol Stack
The memory-resident TCP/IP protocol stack (TCPIP.EXE) from Novell(R) included with LAN WorkPlace for DOS v. 4.01 can put random data in the high- order bits of the EAX and EDX 32-bit registers at random intervals. Because applications built with the /G3 option in the Visual C++ compiler use 32- bit registers, Novell's memory-resident protocol stack could alter data in the high-order bits of the EAX and EDX registers while those applications are running. If the registers are altered by the protocol stack, the applications' subsequent behavior is undefined. If you are using Novell's LAN WorkPlace for DOS v. 4.01, call the Novell support department at 1-800- NET-WARE and ask Novell for version 4.10 of the protocol stack (TCPIP.EXE). This version eliminates the problem.

Uninstalling Visual C++
To uninstall Visual C++ you must delete all its component files, and remove modifications to the SYSTEM.INI file. Delete the following files:

All files in the Visual C++ directory and its subdirectories.

These files in the Windows system directory:

  HLPTAB.DLL GRID.VBX VC.LIC TECHNOTE.DLL MFC250.DLL MFCO250.DLL MFC250D.DLL MFCD250.DLL MFCD250D.DLL MFCO250D.DLL MFCOLEUI.DLL These files in the Windows directory:

  MSVC.INI TECHNOTE.INI APSTUDIO.INI Delete all lines in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file that list files located in the Visual C++ directory (by default,\MSVC\BIN).

Installing MASM Version 6.1 Together with Visual C++
If you plan to install MASM version 6.1 in the same directory as Visual C++, consult the Tools Overview and Update file (TOOLS.WRI) for further configuration information. The TOOLS.WRI file can be viewed using the viewer labeled Tech Notes in the Visual C++ program group.
