->   Then Logitech are wrong, aren't they ?  If you could get it to
-> work on
->   OS/2 Warp 3, then the "low level DOS calls" _must_ have been
->   "implemented in OS/2".  Either that, or that wasn't the correct
->   explanation for the problem.
-> 
->   In both OS/2 "without Windows" and OS/2 "with Windows", OS/2
-> emulates
->   DOS, which Windows runs on top of (Windows is one gigantic DOS-extended
->   application).  Your assumption (inferred from what you say above) that
->   OS/2 "without Windows" uses the vanilla DOS kernel from DOS+Windows 3.1
->   whereas OS/2 Warp 4 uses its own, is simply not true.
->

Thanks for that information.  I did not know that.  I have had some
programs that worked under WARP 3 (using win 3.1) that I had to tweak
further to get them to work under WARP 4, so I thought the Windows
support mught be different.  The info you provide allows me to
persevere further to get it to work under WARP 4.  Thanks.
