Yes, it is old stuff. I wrote these programs in 1995 and still have 2 users.

#1 I need to add a printer and looking at specification for LPT1 I see

ReportDevice STRING('LPT1 {86}')

What is the 86 for? Do I need to change it for LPT2?

#2 When I open an APP in the development environment it immediately closes with FILE NOT FOUND but doesn't tell me which file. I played with another APP and experimented and if the DCT was missing it would tell me. Also if the STY was missing I got a meaningful message. I remember that this was something somewhat trivial to fix, but I don't remember what file it was. I check the .PR file and fixed one error there, but still get the message.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated. The programs and CFD itself run great under vDOS. If I can help anyone with using that please let me know.
