Mike,

Sorry, but this is a problem with a limitation in Warp's DOS emulation 
that IBM has given up on trying to fix. I'd be real interested to see 
whether or not Photoshop 3.0 runs under Merlin.

I suppose that I'll have to find out for myself though. I got Warp 
primarily because IBM support told me that there was a bug in 2.11 that
wouldn't allow Photoshop 3.0 to run and that I'd have to buy Warp. 
Needless to say, I haven't tried asking IBMers if Photoshop will run on
Merlin...

In the meantime, Photoshop 2.5 runs fine under OS/2, and you might want
to check out ColorWorks as a replacement product.
