SUMMARY
=======
Microsoft does not provide a NETWARE.FLL file for FoxPro for Windows.
In order to program Novell transaction tracking services (TTS) from
FoxPro, you must contact Novell and get the file NWTTS.DLL, which
works with FoxPro Library Construction Kit versions 2.5 and 2.5a, to
accomplish transactional processing.

MORE INFORMATION
================
The NWTTS.DLL file comes with the NetWare C Interface for the
Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK).
The following functions are available from Windows or standard MS-DOS
C calls:
   TTSAbortTransaction
   TTSBeginTransaction
   TTSEndTransaction
   TTSGetApplicationThresholds
   TTSGetStats (only available for Windows)
   TTSGetWorkstationThresholds
   TTSIsAvailable
   TTSSetApplicationThresholds
   TTSSetWorkstationThresholds
   TTSTransactionStatus
Additional functions in this SDK deal with print spoolers and other
Novell utilities.
