Dear all,
          I used EMS memory manager even then i
couldn't get running the cobol program. Then, I tried
with XM. XM is a Extended Memory Manager DOS
Executable Program comes with MicroFocus Cobol
Package. when I try
to run this program dosemu comes out by following
error
message.

XM /p6 run program.exe

XM V1.4.6 - The Micro Focus DOS Extender Copyright (c)
1987-1994 Micro Focus Ltd
URN AXCPA/000206701    [Protocol: DPMI]               
                  Ref 015
Application did not execute
one or more of the following reasons may apply :-
  tools library not found
  tools library did not contain MFCONFIG.GNT or
INITAPP.GNT
  initial program not specfied
  tag name in configuration file not recognised
  application library/program not found

Executable Parameters:-
  configuration file  = RUN.CFG
  tag prefix          = MFRUN
  tools library       = $COBDIR\TOOLS.lbr

ERROR: general protection at 0xae9cf: 0
ERROR: SIGSEGV, protected insn...exiting!

 I don't know why XM is not running in dosemu. but it
is working in native MS-DOS.

And also, i would like know about the significant of
the values(ems, xms, dpmi) given in dosemu.conf file.

expecting replies...

TIA
:-) G.S.Mohan
