Have been testing several of Reg's programs in dosbox, so far so good.

Much more useful than Microsoft's suggestion to contact the publisher!

Hi Warren the DOS prompt wont work in Win7 either but the program will run on a 32 bit XP machine.

Hello the list,

        I tried running some of Reg Edwards' programs in Win 8 with no luck.

I tried changing the compatibility mode for the program but it was of no use.

What versions of Windows do Reg's programs run in?
