Correcting the autoexec.bat solved the problem on this station. I'll check other stations that give me that error message for the same problem. BTW: set djgpp=c:/djgpp/djgpp.env <-- forward slashes set tmpdir=c:\djgpp <-- backward slashes I'm a bit confused. Should I ALWAYS use forward slashes for djgpp programs? N.
