I announced a couple of weeks ago that djdoc203.zip is available from
SimTel.NET mirrors.  There you will find the v2.03 library docs in
HTML format (I understand that this is the reference you are using).

Of course, djdev203.zip comes with an updated v2.03 libc reference in
Info format, so you could use that.  (There were many improvements in
the docs between v2.02 and 2.03, so you miss a lot by using the old
documentation.)

Sorry, I don't understand what you are trying to tell here.  I think
it will be much easier to talk and help you if you post a short code
fragment where you have this kind of problems, and explain what you
want it to do and what it actually does.
