Subject: Clipper environment & Win2K?
From: "Richard" <sun365@bigfoot.com>

I am using windows 2K and clipper 5.2d, blinker 5.10.
In the past (win98,etc) I had a .bat file that contained all
  the SET variables such as SET OBJ=C:\CLIPPER5\OBJ etc.
This no longer works in win2K. I can set these by hand each
  time I enter DOS, but when I run the .bat it does'nt work.
Any suggestions or workarounds?
please reply via email

Hi Richard,

I do this At the end of the config.nt file in
  \WinNT\System32 dir a put the following
dos=high, umb
device=%SystemRoot%\system32\himem.sys
files=180
NTCMDPROMPT
This will give your DOS box a history and retain the
  settings from your batch file.
