Sorry, I think I was asleep at the switch. :-(


It happens. I was asleep at it most of the evening... I figured out file
creation in W98 with C, from the API, but not before I asked someone. He
pointed me right back to the API.... I got there. In the end...

Sometimes I wish someone would just give me the answer. I would if asked.
Saves time letting them hang themselves reaching for un-needed complexity, or
wondering if a thing ever worked right. As a kid I learned best from breaking
stuff, but I only learned a lot fast if it worked in the first place. That's
a hell of a motivator, especially when the stuff wasn't mine because the
sooner I fixed it, the less trouble I'd be in.

Re HLP files, I agree, most of them ARE tiny. I wasn't prepared for 20 MB.
