Thanks for the tip.  They had the January '95 Simtel\msdos disks from
Walnut Creek and I ordered them, but they hadn't heard of the SimTel\win3
directories.  They offered me what they call the "CICA" collection of
windows shareware, another 2 disk set from Walnut Creek.

Is "CICA" (sp?) a mirror or an alias of SimTel\win3 or something wholy
different?  Anyone know?

Thanks.
