Jon,

Since you still have the 3.2.0 release on your system, and most likely
in the path, you will need to only run the 4.0.0 interpreter from
within Win32Dbg.

You can see from the above that what is actually running is the 3.2.0
version of you interpreter.

If you have rxapi installed as a service, you will need to stop it,
and maybe disable it.  For you to get through this initial testing I
would suggest uninstalling it as a service temporarily.

cd to the 3.2.0 directory and type: .\rxapi /u

That will uninstall it as a service.  You can always reinstall it as a
service again by doing the same thing with the i option:  cd to the
3.2.0 directory, type: .\rxapi /i

If it is not installed as a server then just forget about the above.

Now, cd into your Win32Dbg directory and try again.  The easiest thing
to do is to copy rexxtry into that directory:

E:\interpreter>cd Win32Dbg

E:\interpreter\Win32Dbg>copy ..\samples\rexxtry.rex .
        1 file(s) copied.

E:\interpreter\Win32Dbg>.\rexx .\rexxtry.rex
REXX-ooRexx_4.0.0(MT) 6.03 20 Jul 2008
  rexxtry.rex lets you interactively try REXX statements.
    Each string is executed when you hit Enter.
    Enter 'call tell' for a description of the features.
  Go on - try a few...            Enter 'exit' to end.
parse version x
  ............................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
say x
REXX-ooRexx_4.0.0(MT) 6.03 20 Jul 2008
  ............................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT

Now in the above you can see that I am truly running the 4.0
interpreter that I built a few minutes ago.
