a) yes
b) they are trunctated
c) everything that has a drive letter
d) mount c "L:\Ag Related\Farmacct" (need the "" when there is a space in directory)

😁 Thanks! That worked just fine! And DOSBox enabled my program to work great. Now, one more question -- is there a way to set up an icon on my desktop that would do all the procedures automatically and take me directly to my program (ie, mount, cd to c:, and begin the program)? Does WIN XP allow batch files?

1) I think you can drag an ms-dos EXE file directly to the DOSBox icon.

2) Yes, DOSBox can run BATCH files as well.

please open dosbox.conf and look at the bottom of that file

Thanks! Works great. And thanks to all who developed DOSBox. A great and necessary tool for XP. 😊

You can also drag a DOSBox shortcut to your desktop and add the path to the program that you want to run in DOSBox to the end, ie:

"C:\Program Files\DOSBox\DOSBox.exe" "L:\Ag Related\Farmacct\app.exe"

You can also add command line options to it to get it to do things like use a specific dosbox.conf file or exit DOSBox when you exit the program. A list of these can be found in the README.
