>With your help and your posted files I got my ISE installation working just fine. Thank you. One further question: Can you run DCOM98.EXE on WIN95 systems, or do you have to run DCOM95.EXE? Is there any harm in running DCOM9X.EXE when not needed. Is there any harm in running DCOM9X.EXE on NT systems? TIA.

The new DCOM9x are specific to Win95 and Win98. Run whichever is appropriate. It does no harm if it had already been installed are the components already existed. Someone else will have to reply regarding NT.
