Dean, it's not theft of functionality. In the OS/2 divorce, both sides obtained some rights to the source code of the other. IBM got source for Win3.1 (which they used to provide OS/2 users with the Windows support Bill Gates had promised when he was pitching the product). No doubt Microsoft got the code used to provide Windows 3.1 support. > > JMHO, > > Dean Asmussen Chris Rehm Mr.AS400@ibm.net How often can you afford to be unexpectedly out of business?
