Re: [Ql-Users] Using different devices

 ... using LRUN, seems to clear the BASIC memory area of 
 a windrive$ variable that I have just obtained from user input.

Try MRUN whihc does a MERGE and doesn't/shouldn't clear your variables - 
assuming I'm remembering correctly of course.

Cheers,
Norman.

Thanks, Norman.

I have done that now, and it works as I wanted it to.

I have also set a :

DEV_USE 1,windrive$'_'

( windrive$ being a variable obtained from user input )

So that DEV1_ can be the psuedo device for any windrive number that is 
assigned when using software like QDT and Launchpad.

I could have set it up this way before, yet it is only now that I have 
seen the need to have the flexibility available.

It shows how useful SMSQ/E is as an OS.
