Hi.  Thanks for responding.  Windows 3.x programs typically contained their
settings in *.INI files but -- for better or for worse -- many Windows 95
programs don't use *.INI files, but rather save their settings in the
registry, buried somewhere within SYSTEM.DAT or USER.DAT.

I'll give your suggestion a try, but I'm not too optimistic!

Thanks again for responding.
