Subject: Windows2000 with Clipper ?
From: thomas.simmel@inn-salzach.de (Thomas Simmel)

OS: Windows2000
Application: programming with "Clipper 5.2d" with "Linker
  Blinker 3.01"

Hello,

in a few month we`ll update our OS  WindowsNT 4.0 (SP 5
  Germany) up to Windows2000.
We have some clipper-applications!
Will those applications still work under windows2000?
Please tell me the main-differences between WinNT and
  Windows2000 concerning clipper-applications.

Thanks
Thomas

I have found installing Windows 2000 over the top of NT4
  service pack 6 was not very successful and the machine
  used more RAM than necessary.  After a reformat and a
  fresh install W2K worked absolutely fantastic.
Speaking to somebody today who just attended a Microsoft W2k
  training session it was suggested that W2K should not be
  installed over NT with service packs greater than 4.
