    Thanks for all your great answers, I realllllly try to figure these out before I get here, I know how it is to volunteer. :)

    and THANKS!!!!! in case no one has said it lately :) :)

    Ok....


    I have a great lil program Lotus 1-2-3 3.1 I would LOVVVVE to run inside a Windows Window, so I can do other stuff in the background.


    I have tried every basic properties setting (MS DOS) but it always has brain farts and blows, etc.

    PLEASE help and thanks!

    If memory serves me correct, Lotus 123 3.1 [have Amipro also?]was designed to run in Windows 3.1, and should run on Win98. There is a file located in C:\Windows\System named MKcompat.exe. I believe it stands for Make Compatable. I have never used it myself, but when it opens, go to File, then select Advanced, and you will see all kinds of things relating to 3.1. Under File you would also need to choose which program you want compatable.
    Please post back what you learn, doubtless others will like to know the outcome.
