How are you Pallini. It has been long since we were in touch. I do have an MSDN subscription. I will check on that.

I've not ever seen Windows v3.0 in MSDN, and the last VC++ I had with my subscription was 1.52c.

You're right, indeed, and my guess was wrong.

Is it really possible to download an unsupported product (especially OS) even we've an MSDN subscription? I think even Visual C++ 6.0 is not possible to download. (Sorry I don't have any MSDN subscription)

As David Crow pointed out, MSDN has NOT OP's requested OS and compiler.

You're right about Visual C++ 6.0: it isn't available on MSDN, anyway Visual Basic 6.0 it still available there and, AFAIK, it is an unsopported product too.

If I remember correctly, Visual C++ 1.0 did not run on Windows 3.0, but Windows 3.1. (Windows 3.1 displaced Windows 3.0 almost immediately.) You could still create Windows 3.0 applications with it. The final version of Visual C++ 16-bit was 1.52c and I still have my CD-ROM for it in my closet (I had to support more than one 16-bit app through the 90s.)

Visual C++ 1.52c and Windows 3.1 are [typically] both available on eBay.

If I continue failing to find them, then I will ask you eagerly to give me your copy. I want to travel back in time.

Don't know how reputable they are.

Hi,
when i tried to change LPRECT to CRect as follows..
LPRECT lprect;
CRect crect(lprect);

it throws exception as Access violation..
Please let me know how to convert LPRECT to Crect

LPRECT is a pointer to a RECT structure. In your case, you didn't initialize the pointer, so whe nthe constructor of CRect is trying the content of the pointer, this causes an access violation.
