Brad Wardell has posted the binary of fixkit #2 for Object Desktop
2.0 to the newsgroup of the StarDock server:

  news://news.stardock.com/stardock.os2.support 

Although it is indicated that the file will be made available from
the Stardock web site, it does not appear to be listed there as of
this date (Dec. 9th).

From the README:

12/1/99
Unlike previous fixkits, this fixkit is really a 'hot fix' type fix.
We did not create the binary patches, and have only included changed
DLLs. To install, simply boot to a command prompt, save the previous
DLLs to a save directory (FixKit20.2), and copy the contents of this
zipfile to the Object Desktop 2.0 installation directory.

Changed files: 

- OBJDCOMN.DLL

- OBJDCCEN.DLL

- OBJDEFLD.DLL 

Fix List:
Enhanced Folder

- Create "New" instances feature does not work on a browsed folder.
New objects are created in original parent folder.

- New instances not getting proper size on initial open due to
toolbar.

- Details view not completely working on toolbar at times.

- When in browse mode and browsed into sub folder, some folder menus
not working properly: (create another, delete, etc.) when invoked
from the folder's menu (contained objects worked OK). 

Control Center

- Fixed occassional SYS3178 errors in Object Netscan. 

TODO:

- FLDR: Icons of browse (eg. use open of folder) folder disappearing

- FLDR: track menu changed for details switch, etc.

- FLDR: fix object rexx
