Description:
I have upgraded from 1.0.19 to 1.1.0.
When i start 1.1.0 i get a message box with (must translate it from german) "cannot find the procedure entry point GetFileSizeEx in DLL kernel32.dll".
Version of kernel32.dll is 4.00.

How to repeat:
Install Administrator on NT 4.0 with kernel32.dll 4.00.

I wasn't able to reproduce this bug using Windows NT 4 w/SP 6a

Same error occurs on my machine - Pentium4, WinNT 4 + SP6.

similar bug reported in bug No:
11899, 12132 (QueryBrowser)
12131 (Administrator)

Happens also with 1.1.2 (and Query Browser 1.1.14 - bug#12132)
kernel32.dll has following attributes: size 367KB, Mod Date 1999-11-18
(was kernel32.dll not affected by SP6?  I would have expected a recent mod date.)

Sorry about the 'noise':

Noticed that Jorge indicated SP6a under which it did not happen.
I have SP6.  Was not aware of the existence of 6a.  Could that be the difference?

Did a complete SP6a install (not just the "hotfix" or "patch").
Still not working.
So what is the difference between Jorge's systems and ours?

Same bug on my NT server, using latest MySQL Administrator 1.1.4.
Server has SP6a applied.
Worst, MySQL Query Browser has same behavior !

I'm also using NT4 Sp6a and get error: 'procedure entry point shgetfolderlocation could not be locatedin shell32.dll". Websites on server won't run, regedit won't run, MySql programs won't run and many other programs won't run. Function "shgetfolderlocation " requires shell32.dll V5 which is for NT 5 and above. Probably need to reinstall NT4 since even SP 6 will not run now!
