How can I convert Micro$oft libs to Borland libs ?

Are you talking about the import libraries or static libraries?

I'm talking about the static libraries...

[Paul McKenzie]

The source code needs to be recompiled with the Borland compiler. The reason is that the object code that is generated from the Microsoft compiler may call proprietary Microsoft functions which do not exist in the Borland library. When it comes time to link, you'll get a thousand errors stating that "_foo() symbol is not found".

This has been the case since the old days of DOS. The rule is that you generally can't take an OBJ or library written for one C or C++ compiler and link it with another C or C++ compiler.
