   Hi Mike,    
      
   You mean the GUI Frontend WcNav?   Well, it works now under normal 32 bit    
   OSes with 16 bit sub-system. The issue is that Microsoft stop supporting 16    
   bit and made the 32bit the new sub-system under 64bit OSes.   
      
   While we would to say we want to have 32 bit WCNAV or even 64bit, resources    
   are limited and the market is changing to where HTML5 and WEBSOCKETS    
   promises to provide interactive I/O with WEB 3.0 browsers.   I think later    
   this year will have a better feel about HTML5 and WEBSOCKETS.
