Patricia,

Many thanks for the note. I can't do much on this for about 10 days, as I
will be traveling for a full week out of the country beginning tomorrow.

Jay

Give us some details. How are you launching? If a shortcut, what
are the properties? Check esp. Working Directory; has to be the
one where editor.exe and startup.int are.

If any of the keystrokes are Alt- combination ones, lots of them
are preempted by Windows. You may need to edit your keyboard
file, depending on what you've changed from the out-of-the-bos
version. And many laptops (someone was having a problem with an
HP one recently) have proprietary keyboard BIOSes.

Anyone with ideas (and experience with Dells, which I avoid like
the plague) please chime in. I'm willing to help but horrendously
busy for the next few days. And Jay, please give us details.
