   I recently upgraded to Procomm+ 2.0.  While the new features in version
2.0 are nice, I have encountered a problem when running a script file.  The 
script file switches from com3 to com1 and then connects to the data link I 
have setup.  The problem is that procomm does not drop the DTR signal on the
com3 port and as a result the script does not work.  The same is true when
going from com1 to com3. I thought it could be something in my setup but
no change in the setup fixed it.  I did notice, however, that doing a manual
port switch by using Alt-P does drop the DTR properly.  Since the script
file scheme to switch ports worked on version 1.1b I can't help but wonder
if it is the software.
   Can anyone help me with this problem?  Thanks.

Does anyone know of a good application program for making viewgraphs...
analagous to Power Point on the Mac?  Also how about recommendations for
a general Drawing/Graphics package...like Claris-Cad on the Mac?

From the July 1991 BYTE, pg. 36, column 2: "The INT13 interface hasn't
changed, so DOS still doesn't know what to do with disks that have
more than 1024 cylinders."

This looks like a good candidate for the FAQ.
