Net-beings:

I am unable to use the Chart features of OPUS 2.2. I would like
to ask for any help or suggestions you might care to send my way.

I followed the instructions given in the installation document,
but did not have any success.

This my setup:

   1040 Atari ST, 1 meg, 1 DSDD drive.
   TOS: 1.1? (copyrighted 1985).
   GDOS Version: 1.1

   Disk A:
	   GDOS.SYS - Directory
	   ASSIGN.SYS
	   AUTO - Directory

	   AUTO directory contains:

		GDOS.PRG

           GDOS.SYS directory contains:

		ATSS10.FNT
		ATSS10CG.FNT
		ATSS10EP.FNT
		ATSS10MF.FNT
		ATSS10SP.FNT
		LQ800.SYS
		META.SYS

           ASSIGN.SYS contents:

		PATH = A:\GDOS.SYS\
		; Change A: to drive w/GEMSYS folder
		00p screen.sys
		; --START OF SCREEN FONTS--
		01p screen.sys
		02p screen.sys
		;-----------------
		03p screen.sys ; Med-Rez screen workstation
		; SWISS
		ATSS10CG.FNT
		;-----------------
		04p screen.sys ; High-Rez screen workstation
		; SWISS
		ATSS10.FNT
		; -- START OF PRINTER FONTS --
		21 LQ800.SYS
		; SWISS
		ATSS10SP.FNT
		;------------------
		31 META.SYS
		ATSS10MF.FNT

   DISK B:
           ASSIGNER.PRG
	   ATSS10.FNT
	   ATSS10CG.FNT
	   DESKJET.INF
	   EPSON.INF
	   FONTWID.PRG
	   INSTALL.DOC
	   OPUS.CNF
	   OPUS.PRG
	   OPUS22.DOC
	   OPUSCOLR.RSC
	   OPUSHELP - Directory
	   OPUSMONO.RSC
	   OUTCHART.PRG
	   PRINTDEF.PRG
	   PRINTER.INF
	   PRINTDEF.RSC
	   SMSS10HI.FNT
	   SPL_LOG.OPS


   The procedure that I follow is this:

   a) Boot up with disk A. I get the message stating GDOS 1.1 is installed.
   b) Double-click on B drive icon, insert disk B. Double click on OPUS.PRG.
   c) The program starts loading and asks for disk A to be inserted. I comply.
   d) The disk drive comes on and after a few seconds the following message
      is displayed:

		ERROR LOADING SCREEN FONTS
		MAKE SURE THE GEMSYS DISK IS
		IN PLACE.

       I am given the options to CANCEL or RETRY.

       If I choose CANCEL it places me in OPUS but the Chart Menu is
       "ghosted". RETRY asks for disk B to be inserted but then places
       me in OPUS with the same results.


       What am I doing wrong? I would like to get this feature going since
       I've sent for OPUS 2.3 .


       Please post or e-mail me your suggestions.


					   Thank you,
