But still, when I am using SideKick to edit a file I sometimes get message "Drive not ready" and the led of A:drive is illuminating though I am saving to C:! Usually in this case I can save the file to some other directory than the one I first tried, then I quit SideKick and try to copy the file to the directory I first tried and get message "Sharing violation..."! Has this something to do with file sharing or is there something I am doing wrong? I have a 386 with 100MB HD. I use QEMM 5.12, 4MB RAMDISK in extended memory, SideKick is configured to swap to EMS and RAMDISK, and 4DOS is configured to swap to extended memory with resident part moved to UMB. Kyosti
