Hello Rafael,

try http://gcssoft.hypermart.net - they have a tool kit called FATS
that is 100% compatible with FABS PLUS NET from CCS. That means
you don't have to change one line of your source code. And it works fine
with NT and NETWARE :-)
This program is also available for 32bit systems.

Silvia
