<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello listmembers,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>First of all, excuse me for writing in English
instead of German. I can describe the problem better in English.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We use Alegro-C on a Novell v 3.12 server. We
recently upgraded our entire network and workstations. Before it was a Novell
Network with the v 3.12 server and several IBM compatible PC's running DOS of
the Novell server. Now we use a Windows 2000 Server for daily tasks/fileserver
and Windows 2000 Client Workstations. The Novell Server is connected to the new
network and wil be used for Alegro-C.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Problems:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Half filled DOS-box screen</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The DOS-box (command.bat or cmd.exe) is configured
to run in full-screen mode. When I start Alegro-C only the top-half of the
screen is filled (EGA? resolution of 25 instead of 50 lines). Is this something
of Alegro-C. WP5.1 on the Novell Server is displayed in VGA
resolution.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. Several commands don't work in the right
way</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Database Records do open after hitting 'ENTER'
twice instead of ones. When trying to insert a new record the steps do not
display in the correct way. Sometimes the screen clears.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. strange character combinations
occur</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When I start Alegro-C on a W2K PC I see the normal
list but each line contains the following combination of characters for the name
of the entry: ←[01;32;40m</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The line with the options contains an other
combination: ←[00;30;47m</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can anybody help me to solve the problems?
What will I need to do to make our version work in our new windows
environment? Has anybody experienced simmilar problems?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best regards,</FONT></DIV>
