Tried it Don, but I can't make it work. I must be missing something. Ed.

But in DP on vDos, it is <alt><Windows key>, and holding them block what you want to copy and release, to copy. Then in DP, <alt><Windows key>v, to paste. Of course in other programs you use the normal procedure for cutting and pasting. But what you copy goes into the Windows clipboard, so it can be pasted wherever you wish.

After some very helpful tips from Brian, I haven't had any problems or even hiccups. The only thing I sort of miss is the cut and paste. Can't do it now in vDos. Good luck. Ed.

Unfortunately, although once promised, a Windows version of DP does not exist. I had the same problem with 16-bit QBasic programs, but now recompiling them with QB64 was a straightforward solution. I suppose DataPerfect (with its additions as DPEXP and DPIMP, MCREATE and STE-MGR) and Shell with the Editor [for shell-macros]) are written in a kind of C language. I wonder if there is no 32-bit version of the compiler for that language. This could be a solution for the 64-bit environment. Of course one needs to have the correct compiler and the source. I know that Lew Bastian had the source code for Dataperfect but maybe copyrights are preventing a recompilation??
