I have executor 1.99p6 installed on DOS and Linux drives on the same machine.

Problem#1:

I can read/write floppies fine under linux, but if I start the DOS version 
with a floppy in the A: drive I get the following error signature:

eax=fffffb80 ebx=882c002c ecx=001ed504 edx=00236708 esi=008541f7 edi=00000000 
ebp=001ed368 esp=001ed364 cd=00a7 ds=00af es=00af fs=00e7 gs=00cf ss=00af
Call frame traceback EIPs:
  0x00023896
  0x00029b7c
  0x00029ea2
  0x0002b39b
  0x0002b70b
  0x0002ee63
  0x000d5926
  0x000d20bb
  0x0010a6b4
  0x000e8b5c

My hardware configuration is as follows:

Gateway 2000 486/33 with: 
        16mb ram
        IDE and scsi drives (scsi drive /dev/sda1 is for linux)
        A: is 3.5 inch floppy
        B: is 5.25 inch floppy

Problem#2:

I cannot print files from MacDraw II.  I can successfully print files
from word 5.0 under linux using a "magic filter",lpr and ghostscript.  
My printer is an HP Laserjet 2P on LPT1.  Is there a simple way to direct
the executor printer output (under linux) to a file so we can examine the
file?  I would like to e-mail the file to you for your analysis.

Problem#3:

I tried to install Excel 4.0 and can get Excel to come up (under linux)
but when I attempt to do a calculation is kills executor.  I can enter text
in cells ok, but no numerical assignments/calculations.  I use the MicroSoft
installation program.  Is there an alternate installation procedure?

Keep up the good work.  I would like to use linux for >90% of my work and DOS
or Windows for the other <10% and would need to be able to run the MicroSoft
Office applications under linux to do this.
