I beleive you can call Microsoft in Redmond Wa. (I don't have their number
but you can get from directory info for 206) and ask them for information on
XMS programming. I did this about 18months ago, and they sent me a short 
bookelt/long pamphlet about XMS standards, drivers and programming. They also
sent me a diskette with XMS driver source code. This was free for the asking 
then.


Hope this helps....
Steve
