I'd heard through MS that Vista wasn't going to support 16-bit apps.  It
seemed to be a factual type statement along the lines of "no it won't
because none of the code to support 16-bit is in there".  This was in the
last month.  That being said though I've not even installed Vista anywhere
so can't and haven't tested this.


Nahum.
