Welcome to the real world! You will not be sorry you abandoned 3.1, the most
hideous op. sys. ever inflicted on computer users.

How do you get to XyWrite? From a short cut or from the dos prompt? What is in
your path statement? What directory does startup.int put you in? What
directory are the dictionary and the thesaurus placed in? Did you switch to a
new computer or did you install Win98 over 3.1? If the former, did you
re-create a temporary directory?
