Here's a followup on the little weirdnesses of VROOM.  Earlier I noted
how Paradox 3.5 issued various dire error messages if it got in
trouble trying to use extended memory, such as an incompatible
expanded memory manager.  You can get rid of these messages by telling
Paradox not to use extended memory, but Paradox seems to function OK
whether you do or not.

Recently, I started useing Windows 3.0.  Here's what happens if you
run Paradox 3.5 under Windows 3.0:  the window minimizes and Windows
acerbically reminds you that protected mode programs can't run in
Windows' Enhanced Mode.  This happens even if Paradox has been
configured as I described, which ought to prevent it from going into
protected mode.  However, if you expand Paradox's icon, you'll find it
running quite happily.

I wonder if Quatro users have seen a similar problem?  There must be some
running Quatro under Windows 3.0, assuming anybody's actually
purchased DAK's famous 386/software bundle.
