I'm running it with no problems, under DeskView 386 version 2.2, but I'm also running DVAnsi first, and I don't know whether that has any positive influence; it just works. By the way, are you running Anarkey 2.0? -- - Mike Shawaluk (mikes@lakesys.lakesys.com OR ...!uunet!marque!lakesys!mikes) "If spirit == essense, then spiritual == essential!" - me

Hello everybody!!! Is there somebody outhere who knows anything about running Anarkey together with DESKview. I have tried but it does not seem to work. Maybe Dv uses another int. for keyboardoperations. If there is somebody with experience of Anarkey and Dv please answer my article. ------------------------------------------------------ - Jocke Fredriksson - - Swedish Univerisity of Agricultural Sciences - - Dpt of Operational Efficiency - - S-770 73 Garpenberg - - SWEDEN - - Internet: joakimf@sluga.se Tel:46/225/22100 - ------------------------------------------------------

By the way, are you running Anarkey 2.0? On my system, it only works within a DOS window; it can't be loaded first or I get the lock-up. But even then, there's a strange bug: when I hit Ctrl-Break while a Microsoft Fortran program is waiting for input in a DOS window that has Anarkey loaded, something in DOS gets broken so that if I run the program again, it can't do I/O without getting a strange error. I'm amazed that this bug needs such special conditions to surface, but there it is. Duncan Murdoch

I have just found out how to run Anarkey under Dv. I had it in my autoexec file before and loaded it at boot, this did not work. But when I loaded Anarkey from the partition I got from Dv it works just fine. Thanks everybody who answered my call for help!!! ------------------------------------------------------ - Jocke Fredriksson - - Swedish Univerisity of Agricultural Sciences - - Dpt of Operational Efficiency - - S-770 73 Garpenberg - - SWEDEN - - Internet: joakimf@sluga.se Tel:46/225/22100 - ------------------------------------------------------

But even then, there's a strange bug: when I hit I don't have any experience with Anarkey, but I have used Keyworks with Desqview in both configurations. The runtime version of Keyworks can even be loaded in high ram to squeeze a bit more memory out of the configuration. The one "bug" that's difficult to get around is that, if you make menus with your macro program, they will not display in any application that you have set the "writes directly to screen" attribute for in the program setup. The reason for this is that Keyworks is not using the same video buffer space as the application. For most applications, Desqview's macros should be sufficient. You can expand the buffer size to handle as many macros as you need, and they can cross applications if you need a single macro to perform tasks in more than one window. The reason I needed to use Keyworks (Keyworks Advanced, actually) was to use an intelligent Lotus PRN file parser that used Keyworks ability to read the screen and branch conditionally. For "dumb" macros, I wouldn't use anything but DV. Bill Kuykendall ...ddsw1!point!wek
