SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to run the Btrieve for Windows NT software from Windows NT, the following error message may appear:

Can't load VDM ipx/spx support.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:

  Check for the following entries in the Autoexec.nt file:

  lh %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16 lh %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx   If the entries are present, check to see whether the following associated files actually exist:

     %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16.exe %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx.exe %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx.dll

If these associated files do not exist, expand them from the Windows NT CD-ROM or install Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW) or Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) which will correctly copy these files to their appropriate locations.
