Hi all,
had an interesting one. I'm in the process of taking some PC
training. The course runs in a full screen dos box (I think) has
wonderful graphics and was working fine. I started I by clicking a dos
icon, a dos window asked to insert my student ID 3.5" floppy. The app
then started and asked me my student ID 8 chars max to form an 8.3 file
name in fact. It stopped working, failed to find the fiile untill I put
in LFN = N in the start up bat file. I had it set to Y to run some dj
stuff. I do not know what the application is written in, it may be
turbo c or anything.
I guess I'm a bit mixed as to where to put LFN = Y, djgpp.env or
autoexec.bat. I have both right now and work rounds.
Regards Ian.
