In my case, the shortcut says it is running a windows NT command script (cmd extension). There are no memory settings available to tweak in the shortcut. If you need to see the script, I can supply a copy.
Hello Dennis;
It sounds as if you are executing a batch file directly. This may (or may not) be part of the memory allocation problem.
Try using the shortcut icon to the RBASE65.EXE that installs with RBDOS. If you no longer have it, navigate to C:\RBTI\RBDOS65 and right-click the RBASE65.EXE, select Send To, and create a Desktop Shortcut. Now, right- click this Desktop icon and select Properties. You should now see one or more tabs that contain memory settings. This is the area that I was referring to.
If you get this far, you will want to use this icon and revise your startup routine
to use the "C:\RBTI\RBDOS65\RBASE65.EXE -R -C <your command file>"
format in the Cmd Line field. Make sure to change the Working directory to
reflect the directory of the command file that you specify in the Cmd line.
This is the inverse of what many developers have done over the years, and works much better than the old logic. The old logic was to fire R:BASE from a command window either directly or via a batch file. The new logic is to use the icon to fire R:BASE directly and call the command file from R:BASE.
I hope this helps.
Mike
