For Meridian's OpenAda Windows V2 ?  From the manual:

"To run the Meridian Ada compiling system:

  o A 286/386/486 PC with at least 4Mb of memory
  o Microsoft Windows 3.0 or later
  o Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit 3.0 or later
  o A hard disk with at least 7Mb free space"

Having said that, if you have Borland C++ V3.1 you don't need to separately
buy the Microsoft SDK, since the OpenAda product can be convinced to use
the Windows libraries, linker etc from the Borland product.  We already had
the Microsoft SDK, so it was no advantage to us.  In addition, they say that
"Borland's resource toolkit can be used to create resources for use by Ada
programs".

Naturally, you can use the Microsoft SDK V3.1, and there is support for the 
V3.1 functionality.
