But when trying my EXEs in Win98/WinME

Never knew the hard can be programming for both platforms...

Another one of those problems with Windows. Both of the New Windows OSs (2000/XP) are essentially WinNT. I used to program really basic apps (stuff that was alot like textpad) and came across the problem. Good Luck with that coding man.

Though it is filled not with the Tao, the Windows API can surly be mastered by one who has the Tao. Look to the documentation. For the documentation has the versioning information. And with that, and [urlhttp://www.canonical.org/~kragen/tao-of-programming.html]the Tao[/url], even Windows 95 will be overcome.
