Hello again, when I run RPG Maker 95 under Windows 95 I
get 2 windows that pop up. One says "The RPG95.exe file
is linked to missing export user32.dll:SendIMEMessageExa."
and the second window says "RPG95.exe A device attached to
the system is not functioning."

I've searched the net and read every FAQ related to RPG
Maker 95 and all they say is to make sure user32.dll and
unlha32.dll are in your system folder and at dos type "set
tz=jst-14" since this is a japanese program. But it still
doesn't work!!!

What exactly does "File is linked to missing export
user32.dll:SendIMEMessageExa." mean? And what does
user32.dll do? This may be dumb but could user32.dll be
by-passed or temporarily turned off. But bottom line I
what this program to work so please help! Thanks.

That's not exactly accurate. The intent is that those 2 files
be relocated from the game folder to the system folder,
after you backup the original, of course, in case of problems.

That message means that RPG95.EXE issued a call to
the USER32.DLL library to request a specific function,
but the USER32.DLL in your system folder doesn't support
that specific request.
