    w2k and DOS program

    We've got a DOS data program we've successfully gotten to run in w2k. The only problem is that it only runs in a window about 1/4 screen size. No method of trying to maximize is working. Does anyone have any ideas to increase the size of the window to full screen? Dragging the edges just will not work,
    TIA

    PcWilliam, that worked great here on my XP machine at home. It took several seconds for the machine to get it's act together when it went to black screen.

    mulder, I've emailed that link to my w2k machine at work and will give it a shot when I get back there.

    Thanks, I'll keep you people posted.

    OK, this works on my w2k machine at work, however on the other w2k machine we're running dual monitors and it just doesn't play nice with program. (black screen and nothing else). It might be a different story if it was possible to run true dual view in w2k.

    As it is the DOS program tries to span the two monitors, that is not what we want even if we could get it to work.

    Next step is the KVM switch to tie in the 98 box to one of the dual monitors.
