SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to run the Btrieve for Windows NT software from Windows
NT, the following error message may appear:
Can't load VDM ipx/spx support.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:
- Check for the following entries in the Autoexec.nt file:
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx
- If the entries are present, check to see whether the following
associated files actually exist:
%SystemRoot%\system32\nw16.exe
%SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx.exe
%SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx.dll
If these associated files do not exist, expand them from the Windows NT
CD-ROM or install Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW) or Client Services
for NetWare (CSNW) which will correctly copy these files to their
appropriate locations.
