Doug,
When an application needs a DLL file, it will first look in it's own
directory. If it can not find the DLL there, then it will look in the
Windows and/or Windows\System folders.
I __think__ that if you make sure the proper DLL is in the "owning"
application's folder, you can have both DLLs available -- each to it's own
app -- and they _should_ live in harmony. At least it works with other
DLLs -- but I'm not so sure about twain and/or twunk files.
