	When you type  CL user.c at the DOS prompt, the default memory
	model is small which you said you did not have.  To compile with
	the medium model you need to type  CL /AM user.c at the DOS
	prompt.  If you are always using just the medium model and don't
	want to add the /AM every time, set the environment variable CL
	equal to /AM.  i.e.

	{inside autoexec.bat}
	.....
	REM MSC SETUP             \
	SET LIB=C:\MSC\LIB         \   These lines or something like them
	SET INCLUDE=C:\MSC\INCLUDE  |  should already be in AUTOEXEC.BAT
	SET TMP=C:\MSC\TMP         /
	SET CL=/AM            <---------add this line
	......


	Also, if you type CL /HELP at the DOS prompt, it will list all
	of the options available.  Hope this helps........
