I tried it Sandboxed, and it worked ok, as far as I tested it.
I did NOT print anything.
I copied the 2 DLLs (oc30.dll and MFCANS32.DLL) to the StartUpMenu.exe directory.
If you try to run it at various resolutions (other than required 800x600) it functions fine, but WordGraph, the word processor, has 2 "Floating Point Division by Zero" errors on opening a new document (at 640x480). But didn't seem to have any problems after the 2 errors. It spell-checks, word-counts, inserts tables, inserts images, inserts current date, Finds/Replaces, Undo/Redo, formats table/text/list, print-previews, shows help without any problems, for rtf, rtc, txt, doc, pas, cpp, h.
All other programs work fine, any resolution.
The Acel Spread-sheet did simple summations & formulas, print-previewed, sorted, changed formats, created chart, showed help for vts, xls, txt, csv.
The EZPhoto image editor could alter an image in simple ways, like add text, line-draw, brighten/darken, change contrast/colors, show help for jpg, bmp, wmf and can also save as (but not open) tiff and png.
The PDF memo creator can spell-check and seems largely intended as text only PDF-notepad, but bmp images can be inserted by clicking the little walking image on the toolbar or typing the word "TPicture" on lines where bmp should be inserted, and skipping enough lines for image insertion. It can open pdf and most of the formats as the word processor (rtf, txt, doc, pas, cpp, h) and saves as pdf, rtf, txt.
The Envelope Printer seems very easy to use to print one envelope address in any font, and can accept an address from the address book. It can print to envelope sizes: 11, 10, B5, DL-Maxi, DL, C5, C6, C65. It allows envelopes to be fed horizontally or vertically from right or left and shows an image of how the envelope is to be fed over a standard sheet of paper as well as showing where the address will print and the stamp should go. There's no mail-merge, help or detailed print-preview.
Search and Find, to locate files, seemed pretty quick, but doesn't have many features.
The MyWebBrowser is a skin for IE.
The Sorting Machine can sort a list, alphabetically or numerically.
The NoteBook is an unformated text only memopad.
The Windows Clipboard works with text only.
File Printer can print .prn files.
Tetris 2D has 9 levels and can be played using keyboard arrows.
The Email Viewer program started, and seemed ok, I didn't have a way to check it.
Over all the Envelope Printer (stand alone 1.2 Mb Envelopep.exe) and maybe the address book (1 Mb AddressBook.exe, 1Kb Address.dat) might be a good way for the uninitiated to quickly & easily print an envelope address or label (Note: does not print return addresses).
