Hi Brian,

Glad to see you here!  
I was just going to ask people if copying 32-bit cards.dll or cards32.dll 
over to Win98, but with a different name & then have app detect which op sys
is present & use either cards.dll on XP or xcards.dll(same one) on Win98, so
as not to make any problem with other apps on 98 expecting 16-bit cards.dll.

But to do that, I need to detect op sys, & I haven't looked into that yet.
Anyone know how to do that?

And I was going to try a "work-around" for moving cards, namely putting cards
back into the deck & re-dealing them to new positions, but I haven't got to
that yet to try it.

I'll email you with specific questions as they arise, as they will
