Re: XyWrite for Windows versus XP Pro/SP2

[Robert Grigg rjgrigg@xxxxxxxx]

Ed, see if you can't get XyWrite for Windows to come alive in the following
way: go to the run command in the Start Menu. Type in the following:
"command.com." This should open a command window. Navigate to the folder in
which you have placed your XyWrite files and then type the name of your
executable file (its name escapes at the moment). It is worth a try, since
command.com is sometimes the only way to get older software to run under
Windows XP.
