I tried (using f:/winnt/system32/cmd.exe as tramp-sh-program) and it 
worked. :-)

Some tidbits:

1. I tried to do a non-multi (normal) file open to make sure I had putty 
set up right.  I then did the multi open and it didn't work.
I restarted Xemacs and tried the multi open and it worked fine.  I'll 
have to try that again to make sure something else wasn't the problem.

2. After opening the remote file, I clicked on the 'Open' icon in the 
Xemacs toolbar that launches an Xemacs-style file open dialog.  With 
normal Tramp, the current directory in that dialog is the remote 
directory.  With multi, the current directory was on my local box.

This worked.  And when I hit 'Tab' and there were multiple choices, it 
opened a buffer with the list of possible completions.  Success.

Sorry.  I got this e-mail too late.  I'm at work now so it will have to 
wait to test this.  I normally don't use dired buffers.

And I forgot to test whether cmd.exe as tramp-sh-program messes anything 
else up.
