I use DOSBox to run a DOS point of sale program. Using version .072 worked without problems. Running under version .073 produces message "Locking failure" and then closes the program. Any suggestions on changes between .072 and .073 that may be causing problem?

The problem (or rather lack of a feature) was there in 0.72 too but not visible to the program.

Thank you for your prompt response. I am currently using version .073 to run other DOS programs and .072 to run the point of sale program. Is there any setting I can modify to use .073 exclusively?
