When I run this program on my PC6300/640K/8087 having dual floppy drives, a 40M Hardcard and AST-EMS board/1M, it locks my machine up on screens 14 and 15. Screens 1 through 13 and 16 all appear to be OK in that they do not cause any annoying side-effects. On screen 14 the cursor stops about half-way down the page and just sits there. On screen 15 I get a full display and can flip between the multiple parts of the long display, but that's all she wrote! To get out of screen 15 I have to do a boot. Dave Beyerl att!ihlpl!db21
