Re: Drag and Drop to 64 bit O/S

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

One of the most useful functions that was ever put into Navigator and 
they blew it up.  I too keep a copy of XP virtual machine with the V5R4 
version loaded primarily for this reason.  I just don't get how the QC 
on the PC stuff is done at IBM anymore.

Note to IBM:  FIX IT!!!!!!

Just out of curiosity Larry, have you called in a PMR on it?
