I believe one of the sections is Old Apps support. This section tells how to use the clipboard from an old app (like MS-Word). It also details how to use DDE within old Apps. The information looks pretty sketchy, but it is there. Please, post anything you find out here. I think we all will be interested. -----Dale Rogerson-----
