I was wondering if anybody else had encountered the situation where if you set your COMSPEC to something like C:\command.com /e:1024 Turbo C++ (I have V1.00) will not shell out to DOS. If I don't have COMSPEC like that but without the parameters it will shell out OK but die when exiting - perharps because it starts up a new command.com?? The message that it says when it can't shell out is that it can't find the file - obviously it ignores the space. If others can replicate the program could they tell Borland about it please. Please don't make suggestions about modifying the default environment size in COMMAND.COM - I know how to do this but I would rather have it fixed if possible. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ian McDonald | 52 Cook Street| / /\ /\ Hamilton | This space free for advertising !! / / \/ \ New Zealand | / / \ +64-71-563438 | I can receive mail but can't reply to it.
