 DESCRIPTION-

        In OS2\INSTALL\ directory, there is a file named database.txt.
        It describes many OS/2, Winos2 and DOS programs settings under
        OS/2.

        Does that file affect settings for many programs when we use
        "Add another programs" to add programs on Desktop or other
        file does?  If so, what is that file's name and can I updated
        it by myself settings?  Does IBM try to update that file every
        short time?  Where to find it?

        I am an OS/2 user and I have myself settings for some programs
        but I don't like to re-set them when I re-install OS/2.

        If IBM or someone else can update that file monthly, then it
        will become more easier to "Add another programs" and needn't
        spend much time on setting special desktop objects
