Dear Prof. Ripley:
As I reread your answer, I find I'm not completely certain
about one point: Is it correct to say that previously compiled code
ran for you, but when you needed to compile something, you needed to
use a more modern compiler?
Indeed, it was the compiler itself that would not run. That meant
that dyn.load() was not available to us, but dll.load() using VC6
worked (if tediously).
Thanks again.

The only problem we found was that the Watcom compilers we used to
compile for S-PLUS 2000 did not run under XP. They were
discontinued long ago, and we probably did not have the final versions.
Otherwise we ran quite extensive tests using S-PLUS 2000 under
Windows XP until late 2003, and saw no difference from Windows 2000.

Does anyone have experience running S-Plus 2000 under Windows

XP, and we'd like to know if this change might break some of our
legacy applications that we'd prefer not to have to migrate from
S-Plus 2000 to S-Plus 6.1 or 6.2. Insightful just told me that
S-Plus 2000 "does run under Windows XP but has not undergone
extensive testing and is not supported under Windows XP."
