win 3.1 program won't load on W2K

You can use the free regmon and filemon tools from SysInternals to help
track down permission issues. Log on as a regular user and then start
filemon using runas with administrator credentials just before you try to
start the application. When it hangs, view the filemon log for access denied
entry. Change the permission to file or folder denied, document the change
and start the process over again. You may have to do the same with regmon in
no particular order in a trial and error basis until you find all the places
where access is denied. --- Steve
