The second sentence in the "Compiling OS/2 Programs" section on Page
527 of the "Microsoft BASIC 7.0: Programmer's Guide" manual for
Microsoft BASIC Professional Development System (PDS) versions 7.00
and 7.10 incorrectly states the following:

   For protected-mode programs, make sure to specify the /LP option
   to LINK.

This sentence should refer to the BASIC compiler (BC.EXE) instead of
to the BASIC linker (LINK.EXE), as follows:

   For protected-mode programs, make sure to specify the /LP option
   to compile with BC.EXE.
