Netlanders,

My father has Dbase III+.  He has an EGA monitor and he was complaining
that he can't display 43 lines on the screen by default every time the
machine is started up.  I can go into the SET commands and find where to
select the 43 line mode for the monitor, but try as I might, I could not
figure out how to get the machine to start up in this mode.  I know
there must be a command to have it start in this mode by default.  I
chould hack it, but I just can't seem to find the right answer.  The 43
line setting are in the second menu of the set commands.  Any one know
what command I should set in config.db to have it start in 43 line mode?
Any help would be greatly apreciated.  I could not look at the manual,
because I am here at school.  When I did see the problem, I did not have
time to look in the book, but the on line help did not have anything
useful to say.  HELP!!!
