I checked the permissions for the files - full control for the user for all files. I tried the following: Launched SMSQmulator from DVD. Changed Config, adding a path for WIN3 to point to my folder and a non-existent .win file (new.win). I was able to use FORMAT command to create new.win and save a program to it. I edited my copy of SMSQmulator.ini, replacing the WIN1 path with C:\Users\ilp\SMSQmulator\new.win, then launched SMSQMulator from the copy in that folder. I now get the following message: "Your SMSQE file is too old, please upgrade to the one that came with this version of SMSQmulator". Is it just me? ;o) Ian. _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
