This error message is a hangover from OS/2 days, and is seen in Win32 apps
(9x and NT), which includes some parts of Win9x itself. That's the same
reason a tool like START.EXE or XCOPY32.EXE will report 'This program cannot
be run in DOS mode.' from a pure DOS prompt - the same MZ-type EXE stub is
used in OS/2's extended EXEs and NT's PE EXEs. But I dunno *why* it's still
about... FWIW, OS/2 apps would throw up a big dialog with the choices
'Retry, Ignore, Abort and return an error to the application' for this class
of error.
BTW, apologies for the delay in responding, as an unexpected stay in
hospital reduced my access to a computer somewhat :)
