Win2k, SP4 and Compatibility Mode



I have an older DOS program that should run in Compatibility Mode. The
laptop I need to use has Windows 2000, Service Pack 4.

I can find gobs of information on MS websites and elsewhere telling how
to turn on Compatibility Mode for SP2 and SP3, (slayerui.dll) But I
can find no way of enabling the Compatibility tab on a program's
Properties.

Has this feature been removed with the "upgrade" to SP4?

Thanks in advance...
