Summary:

The PATCH320.DOC file supplied with the Microsoft C Compiler versions

6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0ax outlines the steps required to patch IBM-DOS

version 3.2, and incorrectly states that there is information about

how to patch MS-DOS version 3.2 in the README.DOC.

However, the README.DOC file does not contain information about a

MS-DOS patch, and the patch files are not included on the C version

6.0 distribution disks.

The MS-DOS version 3.2 patches are available with the Microsoft C

Compiler version 5.1, on the Compiler disk 1, as well as with the

Microsoft QuickC Compiler version 2.5, on the Setup disk. The patch

file is PATCH87.EXE, and the instructions are contained in

PATCH87.DOC.

If you have MS-DOS version 3.2 and do not have a copy of the patch

files, please call Microsoft Product Support Services and a technician

will send a copy of the files.

The MS-DOS version 3.2 patch files are not included with the Microsoft

C Compiler version 6.0.
