Article: Q180147
Product(s): Microsoft SNA Server
Version(s): WINDOWS:3.0,3.0 SP1,3.0 SP2
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): 
Last Modified: 02-APR-2000

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

The SNA Server APPC Programmer's Guide incorrectly states that the TPSTART
program must be running on an SNA Server Windows 95 client before an automated
startup of invokable transaction programs can be started as an application.
However, TPSTART is not necessary in a Windows 95 environment.

NOTE: The TPSTART program is only required on SNA Server Windows NT clients to
support automated startup of invokable transaction programs, which are written
as a Win32 application (as opposed to a Windows NT service).

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the documentation for SNA Server
version 3.0. It will be corrected in subsequent versions of the documentation.

Additional query words: TPSTART invokable TP Win95
