I saw your recent post expressing an interest in buying of used
copy of Lattice C++.  I thought about offering to sell you mine,
but I decided that just wouldn't be nice.

Not much works right with Lattice C++.  It's about as useful and 
productive a piece of software as "diskdoctor".

Sounds like you're compiling a program in the RAM: drive.  That's just 
what happens if you try to compile in the RAM: drive.  Reassigning 
QUAD: to something besides RAM: won't fix the problem either.  Try 
compiling your programs in a recoverable ram drive (RAD:, VD0:, etc.).
Another benefit of compiling in a recoverable ram drive is that
you _may_ not lose your programs which Lattice C++ guru's your system!
