Without SP2, there is a program in W2K called apcompat that is supposed to
do the same thing. But when I tried it told me "MSVCRT.DLL is incompatible
with Win32s". This sounds like a W2K issue, but I've been told (don't know
if this is reliable) that it relates to the program I was trying to run.
While I'm posting are there any issues with upgrading to SP2? My machine is
a 240x.
