Slightly off-topic, but best suited to this list. I installed PC-DOS 2000 (aka DOS 7) in 1999. I have just tried to run GWBASIC to convert some programs from the tokenized format to plain ASCII text format (was going to try a basic compiler). Ran into a problem, get an error "You can not SHELL to BASIC" Tried to run BASICA, system rebooted. Both run fine on my PC-DOS 5.02 system. QBasic runs fine. Any ideas? -- William Andrews Uncwilly@xxxxxxxx Owner: Interbot@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Runway/3091/vega.html Reduce-Reuse-Recycle Please turn off HTML/MIME in e-mail To unsubscribe, send a message to listar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe calmira_tips" in the body.
