 I don't understand why this happens- I am running packet driver pcip
 binaries (like lpr).  I am also running packet drover ncsa telnet for
 the ibm pc.

 I run them both thru desqview on my XT, I thought I would be able to
 background pcip, call up ncsa telnet and use it?  I thought I could
 flip between programs and run pcip stuff and ncsa telnet without 
 exiting either program?  It doesn't work even if I stop the background
 programs in Desqview.

 So, should this work?  If not, why not?  Where is the problem?   

 thanks 
 JoAnn
