Quick question:  Can WP 5.1 use extended memory?  [I'm in one
place and my manuals in another].  I know it can use expanded
memory using the /r option, but because of other programs which
use the extended memory (Paradox 3.5/Reflex 2.0), I'd rather not
use EMS drivers.

Also, does this strategy makes sense -- using extended and not
expanded memory on a cached 386 machine -- or should I switch?

thanks,
