I have been using visual dbase 5.5 for about 2 years on my IBM aptiva -
running windows 95.  I recently bought a new laptop (running windows 98).  I
installed dbase on it.  The installation seemed to go OK, but as soon as I
start the program, I get an error message "invalid driver name or
insufficient system resources: WPSUNI".

I searched for WPSUNI - I found  wpsuni.drv in my c:\windows\system
directory - the same file as on my old computer.

As for system resources, I have 64M of ram & over 4 gig free hard drive
space.

I downloaded vdb56 from the web site, but was unable to install it.  It was
80% done, then I got a message that said "file transfer failed" and it shut
down.  I tried this twice with the same results.

Please HELP!!!!

Susan,

Change your printer driver to be anything other than Microsoft Fax.
That should solve the problem.

Rachel, I tried to access the URL listed above for VdB info and was rudely
informed by IE that the address could not be found.  Is there possibly a
typo in it?  Or, more likely, am I doing something wrong to access it?

Yes.  Thanks for catching this.  "ent" should be "net:".  I think I've
fixed it now.
