Does anyone know where I can find info on using XMS in programs? I
have some info about EMS, but I'd rather use XMS since it's become much
more common (and I don't feel like reconfiguring my system a lot :).
Thanks in advance!

I did this about 18months ago, and they sent me a short bookelt/long pamphlet about XMS standards, drivers and programming. They also sent me a diskette with XMS driver source code. This was free for the asking then. Hope this helps....
