Ed, You've probably recieved many replies to this, but just in case the
comp.os.ms-windows hierarchy started in late May to break up the
comp.windows.ms and comp.windows.ms.programmer groups.  As I remember, there
was a big arguement over placing the group in the .os hierarchy.  Anyway, the
groups are:
comp.os.ms-windows.advocacy
comp.os.ms-windows.apps
comp.os.ms-windows.misc
comp.os.ms-windows.setup
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.misc
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.tools
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32

It has taken a while, but most of the traffic is now in the comp.os.ms-windows
hierarchy, so you will probably want to find a way to read those groups!  Hope
this helps.  Andy
