David,

Thanks for that. It should sort out the problem.

>Windows 2000, like Windows NT does not use a Config.sys file (or an Autoexec.bat). It provides an equivalent "Config.nt" and "Autoexec.nt" for DOS and Windows app that need them. The usual place to find them is in C:\Winnt\system32\. You can create a custom one for each application if you want.
>1. Right click on the application icon and choose "Properties."
>2. Select the Program tab and click on the "Advanced" button.
>3. Enter the path and title of your custom Congig or autoexec.
