I installed DOSBox on the system running Windows 7 64 bit today and also added DOSShell front end; DataPerfect runs OK but since this machine is not connected to the internet and is some way away from my home, I was not able to lookup any on line Help.
Although DP works, I was not able to access any structure or data files unless they were in the same folder as DP itself and I could not send reports to any other folder than this. I may have missed something not having access to Help so will pursue this further but again will not have access to this machine until sometime next week.
