The .obj files contain the assembler versions of your files.
Unfortunately, going from assembler back to C and getting what you started
with is much harder than compiling it. (Consider the fact that all the
#define's would be expanded even if you had the preprocessor output.)

I'd start looking for an old copy of an undelete program from DOS 6.
(Hint: don't forget to use the 'lock' command if you have Win95).
