I am curious and confused

Does anyone even know which assembler Bob used when he converted from 16 bit to 32 bit?  I do seem to recall reading somewhere that Bob used TASM for the 16 bit work, which is understandable.  What work I did in asm years ago was in TASM.  I also have their 32 bit assembler, but never used it.  Seems to me I heard somewhere the 32 bit assembler wasn't so good.

Fred,

There would not be much choice, it would either be MASM or a MASM clone as little else has the grunt to do the job. I did a quick disassembly of PBWIN.EXE and it looks very much like a MASM format 32 bit PE file so this is probably correct.
