>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>I checked to see if anyone has reported this problem in the past year, but no one has, so I hope someone out there has experience with it. I have an installation running a LAN that has just been upgraded to Netware 5, using Netware Client 4.5. The workstations are running NT SP5. When they try to launch the FPW26 application (as an EXE) they get this message: WinExec Failed -- Error code = 8. Any ideas why? Is it possible that there is no support for 16-bit Windows applications in the Netware 5/Client 4.5 setup?

Possibly, but it's a little tough to test without being able to replicate. As a side note, I've checked the MS KB and found no entries pertaining to FPW and this problem. It could be that it's a new problem or that some configuration setting can fix it.
