[ACARS] RE: Wacars & Windows2000??, disable tooltips

[acars@mailman.qth.net]

Hello,
just to get rid of loose ends, I answer my earlier question by myself, =
just in case somebody else would be encountering similar problem...
In my W2000 Professional WACARS was not working due to an error caused =
by WOW32.dll.=20
I checked from the web (www.google.com and there WOW32.dll) and found =
exactly the info I was looking for. -> =
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=3DKB;EN-US;Q299770&
"On Windows 2000, invoking ToolTips for the Minimize, Maximize, or Close =
buttons of a 16-bit application that was built on Borland's Object =
Windows Library (OWL) framework will result in an access violation in =
WOW32.dll at address 0x0FFC73EB."
...
"The only known way to work around this problem is to disable ToolTips =
system-wide for the Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons. For =
additional information on disabling ToolTips, click the article number =
below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:"

Disabling those unnecessary (imo) tooltips made my WACARS work again.
