Like I said, there are a lot of editors for MS-DOS. The ones I know of are listed here: http://texteditors.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MsDosEditors I have FTE, Aurora, TDE, and SETedit, among others. Another you might find of interest is TPE , the Turbo Powered Editor. It's a freeware offering from Brian Foley at TurboPower software, based on a couple of different Borland components. One interesting feature is that it can swap most of itself out, leaving only a stub in memory, when you shell out to perform an operation. Info about it is here, with a download link to the TextEditors repository. But meanwhile, if the problem is that Vision Edit misbehaves, it's not like there aren't alternatives that don't. > Marcos ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
