Are they both fully compatible with Win3.0 in all 3 modes? How about the same qquestion with Excel2.1c and 3.0? 2) I have my modem on COM4. I have no problem using procomm. It seems there are many problems using com3 and com4 in Windows. Is there any other comm programs (such as WNQVT or UNICOM, etc) that supports com4 and how do I correctly configure my com4 for terminal? 3) I thought some DOs windows could be confined to a window and not full screen I have not yet seen an apps that was able to run in a window and not the whole screen for the non-windows apps. Is this true of all non-win apps? Thanks for your replies... BTW I am using a 386SX w/ 2MB VGA 80MB HD IDE, if this info helps at all... B.J.
