On Win98, I have used the subst command in the autoexec.bat file for = a long time and all my projects, include and libraries were created to = use the same virtual drive. I am glad I can still use it. This way I do not have to change anythi= ng in my projects paths to use either Win98 or Win2k. I am using dual boot Win98/Win2k right now and have been slowly migrating all my programs to Win2k. You may wander way I did not do a drastic change? Because Canon does = not provide a win2K driver for my laser printer LPB-465. It is not suppor= ted under win2k. And I hate to put it to garbage. But lately I have found a workaround. NOW IT WORKS under both OS :)))= (I have not tried it but it is said to also work on XP).=20 If anyone has a LBP-465 and which to use it on Win2K or XP, just let = me know.
