Hi
(Very) occosionally, I need to run Foxbase (Plus), an MS-DOS program like DBase III, much faster though. Other MS-DOS programs that I need to ru, work fine in a command-window. FoxBase, however, just starts and shuts down immediately. Does anyone know how to run this program under XP
Thanks
Hans

Have you tried running this via the Compatibility Wizard? Any affect?
 
Hi Rob
Thanks for your suggestion. I tried already, and used the different available options. None of them worked

Then there is a very real possibility that it will never run properly
under XP. Not all DOS programs will.
