Off topic, but perhaps you or someone else might have a suggestion.

I have a DOS program (not XyWrite) that did not have a "print to file"
capability. But I could get it to print to file by using a little utility
called PRN2FILE.EXE - one would run it, and it would direct all printer
output to a named file.

But it doesn't work under Windows 98.

Does anyone know something that does?

Keep well,
