Svobi, 
Thanks for the info.  I've got a couple of purchases coming.  Dirt cheap 
at 99 cents each. Also, I've found the library is a good source, but not 
here in Las Vegas.  I've searched for Getting to Know OS/2 Warp 4 and 
found it in less than 100 libraries in America.  U of Nevada, Reno has a 
copy and it is in the Nevada inter-library loan group, so I can get my 
hands on it. 
Thanks to all those who provided advice on the subject.
