I would like to design it so I can spawn off 20 or so child processes which run concurrently. Is this possible under MS-DOS? I was told this can be done with DESQView or Windows. I will be programming with TC++ and hopefully use the SDK stuff. Where can I learn more about doing this? Also, what are some good books to look at for MS-DOS Windows programming? Thanks for any and all replies. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Johnson Digital Equipment Corporation Colorado Springs, Co
