Doug:

	The earliest MSC I have is 7.0 which has the 3.1 SDK on it (separate
disk and separate install program).

  Hello, all:

 	I was paging through some Sourcer listings that I have of the
 Windows 1.04 code and noticed that most of the functions in the DOS Shell
 code (MSDOS.exe and MSDOSD.exe) are referenced by ordinal number and not
 function name ("MSDOS_23" versus "DoSomeThing"). So, I was wondering
if
 anyone had a copy or knows the existence of SDK documentation for Windows 1.

I think the Windows 1 SDK was bundled with some versions of the
Microsoft C Compiler v 4.0.... or I guess, it would have been 
the compiler bundled with the SDK.

In the late 80s, lots of people were buying the SDKs and then stripping
out the compiler packages and selling them. I bought MS C 5.0 that way
...
 from someone who'd bought a Microsoft OS/2 SDK. I
was able to send a copy of a letter from the seller to Microsoft, who registered me
as
a valid licensee! However, they stopped that practice shortly there-
after.

Regards,
