Check that your drive letters aren't remapped--so that everything is pointing
at the wrong drive. If that's OK, shell to dos from xywrite (i.e. to OS/2's
VDM) and type "path" to make sure your using the right autoexec.bat. I found
it easiest to write a xy4.bat that is essentially an autoexec.bat (including my
ultravision commands) and then use DOS Settings for the XyWrite session to let
the autoexec.bat for that session be xy4.bat. I find life much nicer with Xy
under OS/2.
