Thank you for the list of Dk changes. Specs changes always bring some degree of anxiety, since we want to make sure our old code will not break with the new functions. I never had had a problem with backward compatibilty in the DK, except for that moment, many, many years ago when the GetMapName() fucntion was deprecated.
Of course, I assume all changed functions are backwards compatile. However, what about those two functions that have been replaced? Are the old DisablePorgressBar() and EnablePorgressBar() version still there?
