One thing you could try to troubleshoot this is the following:
* Copy the desktop icon that runs an application the behaves correctly,
* Paste the copy back to the desktop and right click it to rename it,
* Right click again and select Properties, then change only the
Program Tab Cmd Line & Working entries
Check to see if cures the problem.
Good luck,

Dear all Dataperfect users
I normally use DP under Shell (the version of Shell.exe from 1991).
When I put the various parameters right for Windows to run this
(memory etc.) this goes smoothly. But on one particular PC (Win XP) I
cannot exit (close) the SHELL menu with F7. The only way is to exit is
via Taskmanager (Shell does not die, nor does the PC, I just cannot
close shell). It puzzles me, for on another PC with (seemingly) the
same parameters fro running Shell under XP I have no such problem.
Does any of you have a clue?
I also discovered that if I do not set my parameters right in XP I
often get "strange" characters when using some of the function keys in
DP, especially F7 and its shifted combinations (whether under shell or
not). I am not sure exactly what goes on, but this I seem to have
solved -- at least for the moment)
With bets regards
