    Hi ms_cs,

    .PRJ files are the project files of Turbo C. The project.prj file is necessary if you wish to use any of the libraries, but it is not usable as it stands.

    To use it, open the file in the Turbo C editor and replace the first line (test.c) with the name of the the program you wish to compile and run. For example, if you have a program that you have named hello.c open the project.prj file in the Turbo C editor and replace the first line with hello.c. Save the file with the same name as the program, but keep the .prj extension. To do this, type Alt-F to open the file menu, use the arrow keys to highlight the Write to option and type (for example) hello.prj, then press Enter. Next, type Alt-P to open the project menu. The Project name option will be highlighted, so just press Enter. In the pop-up dialogue box, type the name of the new .prj file and press Esc to exit from the menu.
    Now you can open hello.c and compile normally. If you close Turbo C and then reopen it, you will need to set the Project name again.

    Some of the PRJ files and its use in Turbo C are listed below:

    BIDSDBL PRJ - Project file for building classlibs
    TCLASDBL PRJ - Project file for building classlibs
    DIRECTRY PRJ - Project file for DIRECTRY.CPP
    LOOKUP PRJ - Project file for LOOKUP.CPP
    QUEUETST PRJ - Project file for QUEUETST.CPP
    REVERSE PRJ - Project file for REVERSE.CPP
    STRNGMAX PRJ - Project file for STRNGMAX.CPP
    PRJCFG EXE - Utility to convert PRJ files
    TCALC PRJ - The TurboCalc project file

    Hope this Helps you!!! 😉
