Is there a way to run a DOS command from inside a Turbo-Pascal 2.0
program?

Turbo Pascal 2.0??  Wasn't that used back in the Jurassic Era?

Seriously, I know of 4 or 5 different code exerpts for invoking DOS from
Turbo Pascal 3.0.  The best one is INVOKE.  If you can't find a copy on
local nets/BBS's, let me know and I'll post it.

Use the MSDOS procedure (built-in).
