The ribbons do not work like a dialog box. You can be tabbing and, suddenly, with no apparent reason, you are now on the lower ribbon. Once there, you cannot shift tab once to get back on top. You are now moving to the left along the lower ribbon, where you don't want to be. --- Be positive!

Re: [Audyssey] microsoft changes - Re: Fwd: LWorks discontinuing salesof Legacy games
Hi Christopher, There are a number of reasons for why a game like Troopenum doesn't work besides being written in VB 6. It could be it relies on some older activex components that are not present on the system in question or the software Justin used to pack the executibles etc is itself incompatible. Whatever the case we are talking multiple dependency issues here not one or two. Cheers!
