I dont know anything in particular about Nimzo 8, but definitely the MFC42.DLL (part of the runtime library for MS C++ ver 4.2) should go into the Windows\system diretory. If you have several different versions, this might sure cause some confusion. Windows will load the first one it finds, the first time any program needs to use it, looking in the program directory first, then in \Windows and \Windows\System. The loaded version of the DLL will then be shared among all library users started later. Which one is actually in use depends (seemingly randomly) on the order the programs were loaded (including some system utilities). I just found four different version on my hard disk... :-) Bo Persson bop@malmo.mail.telia.com
