Here are some menus I found in the first revision of the book.

There is a method for opening old forms.
Install MAOL or SAOL from https://web.archive.org/web/20200729050823/http://www.koin.org/files/aol.aim/aol/mAOL/
Using DBViewer from https://web.archive.org/web/20200729050808/http://koin.org/files/aol.aim/aol/dbview/ open the main.idx file in /idb/ folder.
Open AOL 4.0, click star in the upper left corner, click Database...
> Invoke Database Record
and type in the database record showin in DBViewer to open the form.

I made a screenshot tour of AOL 4 for Mac a few years back at https://invisibleup.com/articles/5/
There's also a backup of all the raw AOL forms at https://archive.org/search.php?query=creator%3A%22AOL+Files%22, although I'm not sure off hand how to decode them.

The raw AOL forms you stated are actually downloaded media files (videos and images). I don't see any actual forms in there. Can you show me some of the form files please?
from aol_4.0_emu.
Using the AOL Database Viewer (as mentioned two 5 comments above me), I looked through some databases, specifically the "MAIN.IDX" file in the AOL 4 directory and "ART5.IDX", found on some AOL 4 install discs (thanks Internet Archive users!) and I managed to find various graphics and buttons within, most of which I believe use a .art extension.
Unfortunately, despite my research for looking for a program that could look and extract these from the database files, and Dragon UnPACKer's HyperRipper (tools mostly used for video game file formats, with HyperRipper being integrated into DUP) can only rip the .BMP and .GIF files contained within these databases, I could not find a way to get these out of the initial files.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

I use SnippingTool.

I know, but there's a ton of pictures in there. Using Snipping Tool to capture each and every one of them would definitely be a time-consuming process.

This is a BMP file maximized in a Windows 95 virtual machine in AOL 3, and it seems like the window options are on the menu. Yours maximizes at the top of the gray area.

AOL 3.0 is not even close to AOL 4.0 layout.
