This program is written in Visual Basic. Thus it needs the
VBRUN300.DLL (which should be included) to run. If you got
your copy from an online service or bulletin board take note:
Some BBS Sysops remove the VBRUN300.DLL file from Windows
programs that use it in order to save disk drive space.
If you are missing the VBRUN300.DLL file, log back on to
the service or BBS it came from, and, if you can't easily
find the VBRUN file, leave a comment to your Sysop asking
how he/she allows people to acquire it.
