Description:
When trying to run MySQLAdministrator, on a Win98 system (which worked with 1.03 alpha) recreive the following Fatal Error:
The MYSQLADMINSTRATOR.exe file is
linked to missing export NETAPI32.dll:NetApiBufferFree

In profiling the exe file the following were also noted as being imported but are not exported by the Win98 version of NetApi32:
NetScheduleJobAdd
NetScheduleJobDel
NetScheduleJobEnum

How to repeat:
Install and try to run on a Win98SE system.
Note that this problem did not exist in the 1.03 alpha version of MySQLAdministrator

The reason for this is, that we now use the Windows Scheduler to be able to schedule backups. The Windows Scheduler is not available per default in Win95/98/ME and that was one amoung other reasons why we dropped support for Win98.

If Windows 98 support is critical for you please let us know.

hi, i have just downloaded the new administrator and i also face this problem. coz i am also using win98se to do my program. so is it possible that to include win98 into the new administrator. coz i notice that still a lot of people still using win98. and also a lot of my user still using win98. so if like that is very hard coz i have to ask my user to change they windows and the whole pc so that they can install my program and use mysql as their database. thank you very much for your time.
