I have been generally pleased with DESQview running on a 386 machine. I have been running multiple DOS tasks, communication tasks, and packages such as 1-2-3. I found the application programmers interface routines that provide a simple way to make programs DESQview aware particularly useful. One caveat. The documentation is sometimes skimpy, and its nearly impossible to get through to technical support. You'll spend more on long distance calls than you do for DESQview.

I would hope that if the problem is urgent they would call the customer. The BBS number is: 213 396-3904 (8n1 1200/2400) Indra K.
