I am developing a TSR using Tesseract (which seems to be a very useful product)
to do some background processing from time to time. It even works well together
with Windows 3.0 with one exception: when I use Word for Windows no DOS idle
interrupts (INT28) occur. Tesseract needs them to poll my TSR for background
processing. Other Windows applications (Write, Pagemaker, CorelDraw ...) don't
cause this problem. Any help for me?

Johann
