Does MS Windows load under VP/IX?   I would have thought that Windows would
have caused more problems with the display than Excel.

As far as the disk space problem goes, I would assume that if all the *.ini
files are directed to a filesystem that has plenty of room, there shouldn't
be a problem.  Typically the default *.ini files need to be modified.
