John, that is exactly the scenario here. All of the programs  tested work 
just fine on several Windows 32 bit o/s I have tried.
 
I was hoping to find a workaround. The dos emulator I tried sort of worked  
in parts of the program but the added latency caused parts of the program 
to  fail.
 
Poking around the Windows files, I see a folder called system32 that was  
recently created and has several dozen files in it. Makes me wonder if there 
is  the possibility of using a different set of files for 16/32 bit 
applications.  Probably a good way to disable a perfectly good computer!
 
I am way overdue to improve my programming skill set to convert to real  
Windows type programs  but I can't seem to muster up the courage to get  
started yet.
 
I need a pep talk!

Perhaps  you have 16 bit applications that used to work on a 32 bit

Roger, please elaborate on how this is done. I have had no  success doing
this and have a number of applications that need  this.

Thanks/73,
