Thank you very much for the information. So winevdm emulation exists in WINE and it's not dummy code as i thought but can be used to execute some of DOS applications and it's not necessary to use native MS-Windows ntvdm. It's interesting why it's not working for me even for very simple application which only calls int 21 to terminate process. I'll try to look at it closer when I'll find some spare time. best regards, Przemek _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
