[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] EXE2BIN, DBase Utilities

v067qklp@ubvmsb.cc.buffalo.edu (Danielle T Mazzotta) (11/13/90)

Hi.  I recently wrote a program in PD First Modula-2's compiler to either save 
or restore a text screen to/from a disk file.  It's a fairly short executable 
and runs pretty fast when copied to a virtual disk and run from within a DBASE 
program off that drive.

However, I'd like to be able to load the program as a binary and call it from 
within DBASE-III+; this would eliminate load time and enable fast redraws for 
menuing or whatever.

Whenever I run EXE2BIN I get the message "Can not convert file."  Does anyone 
have any clues as to what EXE2BIN is looking for or where I might find other 
utilities (PD preferably) that could accomplish this?

Thanx in advance..
