Excuse me for this silly question...

compiler for dos?

I would guess that it certainly is *possible* though whether this
obj might do anything useful is another question. Clipper (S87
and 5.x) are intimately entangled with the MS compiler and libs,
and there are known incompatibilities between this and BC++ 3.1.
E.g. if your obj calls any bc.lib functions or uses floating
point you will have a problem. There's a useful section
regarding mixing MS and BC code in the comp.os.msdos.programmer
FAQ -- posted just this week but available online.
