Support for OS/2 applications under Win2K

[Tom Kanary]

Help, I need to run a GUI based OS/2 application which
appears to require Windows NT Add-On Subsystem for
Presentation Manager
(http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windowsnt
/4/workstation/reskit/en-us/os2comp.mspx). I can't find
any reference to this on microsoft downloads. Anyone know
how or where to get this package?

Please respond to (e-mail address removed)

Ah ! A more detailed question than the previous
blank one.

You have to buy the NT4 Resource Kit to get what
you are looking for. Places like E-Bay and your
local used computer/software store are your best
bet.

Don't be surprised if it doesn't work worth a
damn for you. IBM and MS were too busy stabbing
each other in the back in those days to care too
much about software compatibility between OS/2 and
NT4.
