->full screen object under command prompts and it also had the WINOS/2
->radio buttons disabled.  I haven't done anything since yesterday (when
->all was well) that would obviously have caused these problems.   

	I noticed the same thing when I tried to change the settings of a
full-screen app to seamless-It was marked to run in an OS/2 window!! 
The funny thing was, it still ran fine as a WINOS2 Full-screen!

	Selective install of Winos2 and DOS fixed it right up.

->Note that my installation of 2.1b was done after a reformat.  Any ideas?

Mine, too. 

Someone with a CIS account should post this one!
