Hi! I have a program which starts programs by using LoadSeg/CreateProc and then sending a WBStartup message to the new process (standard WB callup method). Since the program runs only under 2.0, I wanted to use the new DOS function CreateNewProc(), but it didn't function properly. What tags do I need to make CreateNewProc() behave FULL compatible to CreateProc()??

If you're used to programming with CreateProc(), then you must use a bit of care when switching to CreateNewProc(). The biggest problem is that CreateProc() returns a pointer to the message port of the process structure, and CreateNewProc() returns a pointer to the process structure. -- -- Ken Farinsky - CATS - (215) 431-9421 - Commodore Business Machines uucp: ken@cbmvax.commodore.com or ...{uunet,rutgers}!cbmvax!ken bix: kfarinsky
