Thanks all and everyone have a safe an happy day.JJ Programs are very difficult to transfer because of the registry entries which are usually required to make them run properly and which are normally only created by the installation routine. Additionally there are almost always some .DLL files (and others) that are put into the \Windows folder or subfolders off of it that are also required. Much better to locate the original installation media and reinstall the programs on the Windows 98 machine. Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
