- You don't have to. SHARE is only necessary for multiple processes
- accessing the disk at once and for FCB access to large partitions
- (under dos 4.0). DOS emulator sessions have this built in (remember,
- they access the multi-processing OS/2 file systems).
-
- You can use SHARE in a Specific DOS session (like a DOS 5.0 VDM boot)
- if you think you have a need for it.
