[bit.listserv.games-l] Problem with running a

AUMXS@ASUACAD.BITNET (Michael J. Steiner) (02/07/90)

I am trying to run an .EXE file I received over the network.
I use these commands:

    define ZOO DISK7:"RESRCH.AUMXS"ZOO.EXE
    @ZOO X VAX_TETRIS

I get the error message:

    %RMS-W-RTB, 512 byte record too large for user's buffer

How can I fix this? Should I change the format of the .EXE file?

I received the following message from a local consultant:

>That message indicates a programming error.  The I/O statements in the
>program are incompatible with the size of the data record.  Either the
>data must be changed or the program must be modified and recompiled.

What does this mean? How can I fix this?

Thanks!
