Hi,

I am trying to run a legacy bussiness app using MicroShare Basic For PC/DOS. It runs fine in Widows XP (in VMWare). Obviously, it does not run under Windows 7 (both 32 bit and 64 bit). When I try to run it in DOSBox on a Windows 7 64 bit, it fails to load with an error:

Microshare Basic requires SHARE.EXE to be Loaded

I am a newbie to DOSBox, would appreciate any thoughts or ideas on whether or not this is fixable.

Thanks,
Steve

You don't. DOSBox does not support SHARE or running "business applications" - it is strictly intended for video gaming purposes.

You said it runs fine in Windows XP in VMWare - why not just stick to that?
