- A friend of mine is having trouble getting Compton's Encyclopedia
- for Windows to work under OS/2 (GA+SP), either in full-screen
- or seamless mode. It immediately crashes with the (windows)
- error message "Can't initialize DBTEXT.DLL". This dll is in
- the same directory as the program, which is the working directory in the
- program object. We've also tried starting the program
- from a cmd shell and from the drives object, with the same result.
- The program works fine under Windows 3.0, not under WinOS2.
-
- Can anybody suggest a way to get this working? Please mail your
- replies to Stephan Fischer (fischer@tammy.harvard.edu).

- Thanks,
- JMC
