Hello,
Your compiler is maybe a little out-of-date (1982) when a computer had 2
floppy drives (A: and B:) for data-storage.
Is it possible to look for DOS .bat-files and change something like A: in
C:
?
Since I 'm answering this question after a month, did you solve the
problem
already ?
Regards,
Jack Klappe.
