- I am writing a windows program that will access data from a simultaneous
- running DOS program. First of all, is this possible? Second, are there
- any other programs that exist that work in a similar manner? My initial
- idea is to base the program on something like Ghostview and Ghostscript.
- But those are both windows programs, which canuse DDE, or .dll's to call
- functions and access each other's data. I don't know how exactly this
- can be done between a Dos program and a win3.1 or 95/NT program. Any ideas?

- Thanks, Brian
