Yes I know about the full screen requirements for some Windows
programs.  It seems (and this is from Logitech support) that their
PageScan Color scanning software uses some low level DOS calls that
"were never implemented in OS/2 and they therefore cannot work under
OS/2".  When I ran Warp 3 (red spline = no built in os/2 windows) and
used Windows 3.1 under WARP 3, I could get it to work, but cannot under
WARP 4 which has its own WinOS2.
That is why I will need to run it under "true" windows.
