I have written an enhanced Change Directory command for DOS and I
would like to call it cd, however, since 'CD' is already an internal
command, command.com always executes the internal command.  Is
there any way to disable a DOS internal command, specifically 'CD'?


Question #2:
Is there any way to set the state of the NumLock key.  I already know
how to detect the state of the key, but what I really need to do is
set it to be either on or off.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
