I am in trouble with Microsoft's C700 VX_server. I run PBW in a Windowed
DOS session, and if I call either the debugger or the Run command for a
Windows application (through VX_server), it restores me always PWB in
DOS full screen mode.

Has anyone heard about such a problem or could I simply come from my
Video (it is a Diamond Stealth S3 with OEM Drivers for Win31).

Thanks for help

WXServer defaults to returning to a full-screen DOS session. To make it return
to a windowed DOS session, use the /W command-line option.

For example:

  WX /W MYPROG 

will run MYPROG and will return to a windowed DOS prompt upon completion.

     Hope this helps,

I assume you mean WXServer.  If you run PWB in a DOS window, and you want
WXServer to return you to the windowed DOS box, just run WXServer with the
"/W" flag.  Note that typing "WX /?" will give you a list of all the flags.

Best wishes,

Chris
