We have a Windows application that uses the DECnet-DOS sockets API.
The app works fine under Windows 2.x and Windows 3.0 real mode but 
does not work under Windows 3.0 standard or enhanced 386 modes.  
The function dnet_installed() cannot detect the DECnet Network 
Process on the PC.  When removing the dnet_installed() test we 
get a Windows error, "Unrecoverable application error, terminating 
current application".

Any ideas why DECnet-DOS API's don't work for a Windows app running
in protect mode?

Please post replies.  You cannot directly mail me yet, my address 
isn't out there.

   Thanks...
