Gee, it should work pretty well in Windows 95, Gary. There is one little thing that might give you fits - there's a cute little graphic that's supposed to show when you open the database. Unfortunately, Win95 doesn't like it, or the viewer it works with.

Here's what you do: open the batch file "folksong.bat" in an editor like notepad, and edit out the line that operates the graphic. Your batch file should then look like this

cls
rt5 oct97
exit

Then save the batch file, and it should work ok- I think.

Now, you can get really cool and do this:
Right-click on that filename, "folksong.bat." A menu will pop up. Choose "Create Shortcut," and a shortcut should appear on your desktop, all set up for pretty-good operation. You can right-click the shortcut and tweak the properties if you dare.

And, of course the real addicts (such as myself, perhaps) drag that shortcut onto our "Start" buttons, so we can get to the database in a flash. And then we get fancy and substitute a cute little icon, or something.

Hope that helps. If it doesn't, we'll call in the Big guns.
