DOS program closes

Guest

I have DOS based Trig calculation programs that require
some input data and then calculate the results. The
problem is after upgrading to XP Pro the DOS window now
closes immediately after the calculation. I have opened
the properties of the program, gone to the program tab
and unchecked the "close on exit" box but the program
still closes? Any suggestions.

You have to open a separate command window to run the program instead of
using Run. Pin this shortcut to your Start Menu: %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe
OR in the Run box type: cmd and then run the program.
