- To use LOTUS 123 3.1 in emulated dos, set all the executables to have
- version 3.3 faked, (3,40,255) in DOS_VERSION settings, set DOS_UMB on,
- DOS_HIGH on and DPMI_MEMORY_LIMIT to 4 or more. (I use 3). Then, cause
- the object to call a batch file which sets "123MEMSIZE=2048" then
- executes 123.exe.
-
- This will work.
