Why do DOS programs sometimes get messed up in OS/2 with write permissions? For instance SLMR can never delete it's own work directory, even though it isn't using it. Telemate can't launch wordperfect, because it gets "access denied." What's the problem? These programs are not being run in the background. There is nothing else using them. They should be totally accessible.
