DBASE /T only works with dBASE IV.  This does not work with dBASE III PLUS.
There is a utility available on our BBS that stuffs the keyboard buffer
with a CR to bypass the license page.  The number for the Ashton-Tate
BBS is (213) 324-2188 8/N/1.  BTW, this isn't an official Ashton-Tate
utility.  Hope this helps.
