From: Joseph M. Newcomer on 17 Dec 2009 23:04 h2inc is a utility that creates an assembly-language .inc file from a .h file, in particular, it translates C structures to STRUCT declarations. However VS2008 does not appear to have it, although I always do a complete install of everything possible. Anyone have any ideas what happened to it? joe Joseph M.

It was part of a patch which should be available at this link: http://download.microsoft.com/download/masm61/Patch/6.14/W9XNT4/EN-US/Ml614.exe Frank
From: Joseph M. Newcomer on 18 Dec 2009 16:45 Given the total slovenliness of the MASM documentation, it is not surprising that a feature that has been removed is still documented; the Microsoft documentation acts as if this feature is still present. So we have features that DON'T exist that ARE documented, and features that DO exist that AREN'T documented. Very sad. (The most recent documentation I could find still tells how to create TSRs! And if you don't know what that stands for, consider yourselves lucky!) joe On Fri, 18 Dec 2009 04:56:02 -0600, Cmplx80 <Cmplx80(a)Karma.com> wrote: >Joseph M.

From: Joseph M. Newcomer on 22 Dec 2009 22:55 Of course, it probably never occurred to them to tell the documentation people about this! Sigh. Another wrinkle in the "every version we ship is less usable than the previous version" approach to new products. joe On Tue, 22 Dec 2009 00:13:49 -0600, "Liviu" <lab2k1(a)gmail.c0m> wrote: >"Joseph M.
