I didn't get that ?? What do you mean by "didn't work" ??!?

If you wonder where all the printf and scanf has disappeared, let me tell you that you can see some calls to the Windows API function : msvcrt.scanf, wsprintf, wvprintf etc..

@saswat
it said unable to open or read file..?

[SaswatPadhi]

Oh ! I see, Turbo C executables are 16-bit and Olly handles only 32 bit.

Try to write in ANSI C.

@saswat
i went to turbo c ->options ->compiler ->sources -> keywords ->ansi
creted the file
ran it same error?

[SaswatPadhi]

No no no ... Turbo C is not up to the ANSI specifications.
The setting you changed, just changes "how" Turbo C recognises the KeyWords.
Turbo C compiler can compile to 16-bit ONLY.

When I said ANSI C, I meant that you should use some compiler like :
(*) GCC
(*) Microsoft VC++ Express (2008 or 2005)
(*) OpenWatcom C/C++ Compiler
(*) Digital Mars C/C++ Compiler
(*) BloodShed DevC++ Compiler
(*) MinGW32
(*) DJGPP etc ..
which conform to the latest ANSI C specifications.
