William:  I have on taps a conversion from 4.5++ to windows 9.1.   We need 
to keep the 4.5 DOS alive for a bit as we bring pieces over to windows.  I 
found out that the 4.5 code is so sloppy that some commands wouldn't run in 
DOS 7.6.   I tested the particular code that breaks and it did run in DOS 
6.5.  So I worked with RBTI and they let the company purchase a copy of DOS 6.5 
rather than DOS 7.6 and we will convert the DOS app to 6.5.   Another case 
of RBTI doing whatever's necessary to get these old DOS apps converted as 
quickly as possible!
