Hi.  Quick question

I've just upgraded my 8086 system to a 80286 system.  Went from 8 to
16 MHz, and from DOS 2.12 to DOS 3.3.  Went great, but one of my database
programs, Ashton-Tate's FRIDAY, will fail on certain files with an error:
"END OF FILE SEEN UNEXPECTEDLY" or something like that, and kicks me back
to the operating system.  I do a CHKDSK after this and find two or three
lost clusters.  What is going on.  The exact same files run great on the
8086 machine (repeatedly tried this from backups)

I would appreciate any pointers as to what I am really seeing.

Thanks
