ISTR there was some discussion about the limit on Program Manager
groups in Windows 3.xx here recently (approx 24 groups)...

I tried to get around this with Win95 but had too many problems with
that to be bothered spending time sorting them out, and so 
reverted to my W4WG setup.

Just to let you all know that a program called TabWorks, from XSoft,
does the trick, allows you to set up a hierarchal structure,
is easy to use, and has an instant-access icon bar and right-button
properties dialogs, a la Win95. It replaces Program Manager, and has
quite a cute task switcher to replace taskman.exe.

Unfortunately, it's not shareware or freeware. :(
I got mine free with a Compaq machine.

cheers,
