The solution of this problem is much easier than one would expect and doesn't
require any low-level driver. Bonner Katalog must be run with the command line:

C:\DMB\WIN\DMB16G.EXE -cC:\DMB\WIN\DMBWG.mnu -tC:\DMB\WIN\DMBW.trl -aDMB
-pD:\DMB_C\DMB1.DAT

as registered in the Windows start menu. By double-clicking the executable the
program will also fail on Windows XP with the same message (BTW it's impossible
to open device MSCD000 under Windows XP even when using int 21h from a
DOS/Win16 app. I've read in an intrlist that MSCDxxx devices are also not
supported on Windows 95 but I don't know if only for Win32 apps or also
Win16/DOS).

There is a problem with Wine that we don't create any start menu entry for the
program. This can be because as this is a Win16 program the installer may be
using DDE to communicate with the Program Manager as this is not implemented. I
will check this.
