Hi Pablo,

That's a good point. The majority of the code will still function
under <5, minus the calendar and the help facility (qsfind and '?').
The basic engine itself does not rely on this function.

History of IE:
  1995-08 - IE 1
  1995-11 - IE 2
  1996-08 - IE 3
  1997-10 - IE 4
  1999-03 - IE 5
  2000-07 - IE 5.5
  2001-08 - IE 6
  2002-09 - IE 6 sp1

Mind you, it's a couple months into 2004, now. IE5.5 was a patch for
the IE5 that shipped with W98SE and W2K, W98 shipped with IE4.01, but
that was way back in '97. IMNSHO, if people haven't installed a patch
(5 -> 5.5) in over 3 and a half years, they probably wouldn't even be
interested in DQSD anyway. If they haven't installed a patch in 7
years - well, ...hmmm... I think I'd better bite my tongue.

I doubt it would work reliably across windows installations, even on
the same OS.

Since you were interested in compiling your own application anyway,
you could just build an activex class object that took a few arguments
for parameter/startup information, then populated a small
toolwindow-style form. This would also give you the opportunity to
have nifty special effects on the W2K+ line, like window transparency.
