Q60851: TSCNIOxx.OBJ Stub Files Remove COLOR Border Parameter

When a Microsoft BASIC Professional Development System (PDS) Version
7.00 program is linked with one of the TSCNIOxx.OBJ stub files, most
graphics statements and functions are stubbed out. When a program that
has been linked in this manner attempts to use the "border" parameter
syntax of the COLOR statement, the run-time error "Feature
unavailable" should be generated. This is because the border parameter
syntax support is contained in the graphics portion of the BASIC
run-time module and this is removed, or stubbed, during LINK time.

The syntax for the COLOR statement that applies here is as follows:

   COLOR [foreground][,background][,border]

This statement is only supported on a CGA graphics adapter in SCREEN 0.
