Dear Readers:
    I have some questions about writing Fortran Windows Applications
(not QuickWin) using CVF 6.6B.

    1. Both the documentation and third-party books say that **almost**
all of the full functionality of the Windows API, as defined in the C
language <windows.h>, is included. What functionality is missing?

    2. What, if any, documentation is there about the missing
functionality?

    3. What, if any, ways are there to get modules that provide the
missing functionality? I.e., other than writing the modules from
scratch. E.g., are there any Web sites that provide these modules?

    4. What is the difference between USE DFWIN and USE DFWINA? I have
seen both USEs in example programs, but I cannot figure out how the two
modules differ.
