[THIN] Re: Compatibility Mode

Hi Tom,
 
Download the Application Compatibility toolkit from Microsoft.
 
You can then use the compatibility administration tool to create a new app 
compat database, "create new application fix" for your application and select 
the NT4SP5 operating system mode (includes all NT 4 fixes) to your application. 
 
Skip the additional compatibility fixes but try the "test run" button. If 
everything works choose "select all" and finish. File > "SaveAs" and name the 
database something appropriate like c:\windows\apppatch\NT4_apps.sdb.
 
You should now have an entry under custom databases called nt4_apps. Right 
click on that and select "install" to install the compatibility fix for that 
application.
 
That should be it.
 
regards,
 
Rick

Is there a way to Publish and App in NT4 mode.  I have an old app that is 
installed on 2K3 and I can get it to run if I create a shortcut and then go to 
the properties of it and choose NT4 from the Compatiblity Tab.  Are there any 
switches that can be added to the executable to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Tom Waller
