It has always been a limitation of the QXL version of SMSQ(/E) that the
QXL.WIN files used both ahrd coded file names and hard coded drives that
were not configurable.   There is a way around this in that you can use the
SUSBST command to assign directories under DOS to drive letters.  Then if
you keep eaqch QXL.WIN file in its own directory you will satisfy your
requirement.    Under Windows NT/W2K/XP class systems you can do a similar
thing by sharing out a directory and then mapping a directory via the
network (it is perfectly permissable to do this back to the same machine).
This works fine if you only have a single partition on your machine (i.e.
you drive letters are free).

Yes I know that (and I did), but I was asking if you can assign a .win file
(any QXL.WIN file, regardless of filename or disk - a la QPC :-).
I have a 20 Giger drive here and it seems pretty stupid to have to
partition the drive in order to get Win2_
