Have you tried uninstalling the cd rom drive software. This should get your configuration back to normal. Run CFT and create a gedcom file. Download the newest version of CFT and import that gedcom file. Buy the program from Ira, You'll like the Windows 95 versionm a lot better. Once that is successful, reinstall your CD ROM drive.

Hi, I have never run the DOS version, but it sounds like your installation of the CD-ROM may have loaded a DOS level driver that is being activated under '95 when you run DOS programs. If it has used up part of the DOS 640k memory, CFT may not have enough space to run. >From the DOS prompt under '95, run the MEM command. If it shows a value for "Largest executable program size" of around 560K or greater, then all is well. If it comes up with 350K or similar, then a driver of some sort is being loaded and should not be required. If this is happening, look at the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files which should be found in the root directory of C: drive. Firstly, check the dates of these two files. If they correspond with the date you did the installation, that is a guide that they have been changed. If changed, there may also be CONFIG and AUTOEXEC files with different extensions, that may represent the previous versions. You could experiment with reinstating the earlier versions and restarting the PC. 95 would not normally require DOS level drivers for the CD-ROM under normal conditions. Another factor may be that the drive letters have become renamed from what were previously in use. Check that they look normal. Beyond these suggestions, Ira may be able to offer a comment on the memory requirements of that older version.

3rd REQUEST! Someone help me save my data! Ira, George, anyone? I'm running the old DOS version under Windows 95 and yesterday I installed a new CD-ROM drive. Everything seemed ok until I tried to access CFT. I get an Error code 8 Innsufficent memory and DOS Code 0. I had this problem about a year ago when installing a new HD and fixed it but don't remember what I did. Can someone help? Mr.T (Tracy Schell) from The Sunshine State.

I hate to "beat a dead horse", but, once again, let me say that you CANNOT unsubscribe from a List, by REPLYING to an email posted to that List. When you do, the Subject: line is "RE: Whatever was the Subject of the Email to Which You are Replying." The software at RootsWeb, will NOT act on such a request as "unsubscribe", if the subject line starts with RE: This nagging matter does not pertain to all the Lists which I manage, but just thought I would send it out to all of them, so users would know, in the future, how to unsubscribe. To unsubscribe, the user MUST send a NEW message to the List!!!!! Please read the Welcome Message -- it tells how to unsubscribe. It pertains, in particular, to SURNAME-QUERY and RESEARCH-HOWTO. Regards, SgtGeorge Listowner

Please help. When I print out my reports, the right edge of the page is missing. How can I adjust the right border? Any help appreciated.

Different people have different preferences, so, IMHO you should be able to use either the key strokes or the mouse or a combination. Most programs I use are that way.

If something can be used solely with a mouse, fine. But if a program requires keyboard input make it soley keyboard operational with mouse support being optional. For instance in MS Word since I've already got my hands on the keyboard I would much rather hit ALT F,S to save my document than to stop, drag the mouse up to file, click on it, slide down to save, click on it. I can ALT F,S before a person can even reach their mouse, it's much faster. Mr.T (Tracy Schell) from The Sunshine State.
