Hi Netters:

This is a second posting due to my format error on the first one.

I was shown a short demo of Object Vision by Borland and was impressed.

Does anybody has any positive/negative experience with this software?
Does this software has any competition? Is there something like this
for the Mac platform?

I will summarize if received sufficient responses.  Thx.

Instead of using just plain DIR, use XDIR.  XDIR also has other features
that you may find useful.  As with all DRDOS commands, type XDIR /? for
a general overview.

I'm a big DRDOS fan myself.  I used SSTOR for a time, then when I re-
partitioned my drive, I stopped.  No reason, just didn't need it any more.
Now that I got another HD (an old, slow 20meg.  Hey, it was $30, gimme' a
break!) I'll use SSTOR again on that drive...

There are two questions (problems) that I have, one is strictly OS/2 2.0
related, the other one involves both OS/2 and MS-DOS 5.

First the OS/2 2.0 problem.  I have recently upgraded my system memory from 8MB
to 20MB (I swapped 4 1MB SIMMs for 4 4MB SIMMs).  However, OS/2 only recognizes
the first 16MB and does not make use of the remaining 4MB.  Anybody know why?

The second problem may be related to the memory.  While I had only 8MB of
memory, Borland's PARADOX 3.5 was running fine under MS-DOS 5.0 and OS/2 2.0.
After upgrading the memory, PARADOX only runs under OS/2 and acts very strangly
under MS-DOS.  It almost behaves like a TSR.  I run it and get the command line
prompt back, minus 45K of memory ( reduction from 617K to 572K).  When I
look at the memory (using MEM or MI from PCTOOLS) there are two consequtive
free memory blocks, the first 572K and the 45K that disappeared when I tried to
run PARADOX, the 617K which should be free.  Why doesn't PARADOX run and why
does it mess up the memory like that ???

I use Lantastic-Z (zero-slot (serial) lan) in conjunction with PCTools V7.1  
backup.  That's works fairly well but, it's slow.

As I have stated here before, what folks want is the Scholar Package, not the

I had the same type of problems with Paradox 4.0 under DR-DOS 6.0.  When I 
upgraded from 3.5 to 4.0 I could not get it to run with my 10MB of ram.  I
tried excluding various address ranges from the EMM386.SYS memory manager
with no luck.  I had to go back down to 6MB of ram to find a combination
that worked.  I tried 8MB but Paradox would not run with that.   The system
is a 386DX 20mhz.

Anyone out there have an idea what to do.  I also tried booting with MS-DOS 5.0
and using Microsofts memory mangers.  In addition I tried QEMM for memory
mangement with both versions of DOS.  I had been using my system with 10MB,
2 banks of 1MB sims and 22 banks of 256KB sims for several months before
upgrading Paradox.  I had no problems with Windoes 3.1, Paradox 3.5, Borland C++3.1, or any other applications.

Don't know about criketgraph, but our lab has endnote for the PC and
we are quite pleased with it.  Makes dealing with references a hell
of a lot easier.  We have both the endnote and endnote plus versions
if you are using Word for Windows  get the Endnote Plus version, it
can read the W4W file format without going through the RTF format 
and back again.  I beleive, but not having it in front of me, it can
read the native file formats for most of the popular word processors.

Just a satisfied customer.

re: which one?

I'm a long-time user of Word Perfect/DOS; I've got WP for Windows (the
updated version), have Ami Pro 2.0, and, most recently, Word For Windows
2.0a.  For serious, simple text entry, I just so darn used to WP/DOS
that I still use that.  For formatting, though, and even for text
creation, I find that I'm becoming ever more impressed with Word For
Windows: it's fast, logical, straigtforward, and powerful, at least in
my experience.  Coupled with a bunch of TrueType fonts and a Laserjet,
I've got all the 'publishing' power I need.

The problem with word processors is that they're sorta like shoes: you
can't just try them on in the store, it's only after weeks or months
that you figure out whether you really like 'em!

Good luck!

Borland uses a highly optimised overlay manager that allows QP to work
very efficiently with few resources. Basically they can swap small amounts
of data/code to tailor the space requirements to the task. Lotus loads and
unloads large chunks of data/code at a time. If I don't disremember, Borland
calls their scheme VROOM, Lotus doesn't have anything equivalent.

   This discussion probably belongs in the Windows groups...are you using
a third-party video monitor?  I tried installing the drivers for my
NCR video board and I get the same behavior, whereas if I use the
Windows SVGA driver, I have no problem.  I had put on 386MAX first, and
haven't tried turning it off.  Please post answers (note Followup-To:),
since 386MAX and Windows 3.1 are both popular enough to warrant it.

Subject: recommendation for LCD screen for overhead projector sought
Organization: eng
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 1992 08:38:09 GMT

We are considering buying a transparent LCD screen which can be 
put on an overhead projector to allow showing PC-screens to a wider
audience.
The screen should be connected to  PC as well as MacIntosh computers.
Does anyone have experience with those devices. What should I look for
and more importantly, what should I avoid?

My idea is, to have a laptop connected to it and Apple users convert there
pictures to a common format, say PCX, and display them on the screen by
help of a 'show'-program. This requires only one disk to be carried and not
a whole computer. However, this would prevent 'live' moving pictures for
Apple users.

Any better ideas? What 'show'-program is recommendable?

We used to prepared presentations by creating stuff on computers
then print them out and copy them on transparencies. After showing 
most of it ends up as trash. We don't like to create that extra trash!
So, why not use computers all the way to and through the presentation.

I downloaded unreal, a 386-game with great graphics and sound (see
comp.graphic for more details) but it doesn't work!!

When I start it responds with the message that Unreal needs 600,000 free
memory and that I'm 9920 short. BUT I'M NOT!! When I inspect my memory, I
see that I've got 605,000 free. 

Is DR-DOS 6.0 the problem ( memmax -l that's not recognized ) or is Unreal
the problem ( 600 K instead of 600,000, which is said explicitly ! ).

Please help,

c-ya,
