Wouldn’t it be better to run Grandview under a DOS emulator, like DOSBox? See http://www.dosbox.com/

If memory does not deceive me, I did this a few years ago.

Actually, this suggestion has been made by others in the past as well. Just search for “DOSBox”.

But if GV is run in DOSBox, will one be able to copy/paste between GV and a Windows program?

Jack,

If you intend to print with GV, better check that it will work with your printer. GV did have a program to modify printer drivers. I may have it. I know that I did modify a printer driver nearly 20 years ago.

Thanks but I’m not planning on printing from GV but intend to use the export facility (assuming I can get it working).

While I have your attention, you mentioned earlier that GV had other command line switches. Would you happen to know what they are?

TIA
