   IIRC, the infallibility of the initialisation of Delay in WinCrt can be   
   attributed entirely to the non-existence of Delay and therefore its   
   initialisation.   
      
   In TPW Windows Reference Guide, dated 1991, thought to be version 1.5,   
   pages 102-103 support that by not having anything between them; though   
   that might not be the right place to look.   
      
   My Web page  adds   
   support by nowhere containing the case-independent string 'TPW'.
