The trouble I believe is that, even under NT/95, if you are running 16 bit apps they need a 16 bit ODBC driver. And dropping support for 16 bit machines is only going to cause grief. David... Your company did a bang up job on fixing the 32 bit support. That can't be denied. We just need to figure out how to mesh the support for 16 bit into it.
