ok, ok.. you can tell I haven't seriously used win32 since the "win 98" days
(heck, haven't written any kind of windows application since around thetime
of win 3.11 or so).. I told you I was ignorant of these things! :) I don't
have a win32 machine to try either of the above with, so I'll take the words
of the more experienced as fact :)
