First google result:

You didn't do your homework.

Why use borland? I suggest you using other compiler/IDE instead.
oh well ok. what compiler do you suggest then?

There are better compilers than Borland C++, try codeblocks or MS visual C++, both are modern IDEs and free.

Use this:
http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/ (TDM-GCC)

Or this:
http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9709949 (Visual C++ 2010 - a compiler + a good IDE)

If you're going to suggest Visual Studio, you might as well suggest the latest version, which is Visual Studio 2013.

Alternatively, if you want a decent Text Editor + commandline compiler:

Go for code::blocks it's free and the best one out there. My opinion
@ Catfish666: The latest Visual Studio (2013) includes C#, VB too and is huge to download ~700MB while in 2010 you can download the IDE for different languages seperately.
C::B is IDE, but a good one.
I suggest you using g++ from gcc. It's really good compiler.

Cheers!
@ Stormboy: the compiler and C++ standard library shipping with Visual Studio 2013 implement a lot of C++11 features, whereas in Visual Studio 2010 only certain C++0x features are implemented.

As AidaVed learns the C++ language he (she) will eventually want to learn to use C++11 features: basic, yet very sane things like initializer lists, and uniform initialization, range-based for() loop, hash maps, etc.

The original Borland product line lives on under the Embarcadero company. Nowadays it is probably of most interest for RAD Studio, which evolved from the earlier products such as Borland C++ Builder. Although it is actually good, it comes at a price, the starter version is perhaps affordable, but I'd recommend looking at the free alternatives first.

One example is Orwell DevC++ - this is the maintained up to date version of this compiler and IDE
