Hurray!  and hurry!
However, any suggestions for now about how I can handle Lotus 1-2-3
verson 3.0 without having yet another memory manager and yet another
config.sys file---while I wait for apps that run in OS/2, I still
need to run DOS to work with theses apps.  My clients and students
don't always have OS/2 or the latest OS in their boxes.  Don't
misunderstand me, I like MS products.  In fact one of my favorite
things to consult with and teach about is Excel.  However, I'm 
running out of Advil with the Lotus issue...and it is forcing me to
go the route of DESQview.
..unless you have any other suggestions! ANYone!
