When it comes down to it, I can either jump through a billion hoops to make it work using my OS/2 applications, or I can do it all in CorelDraw on a winbox. It sucks that I'm doing it on a winbox, but CorelDraw let's me draw the comic so much faster because I can do everything in one place, make readjustments, edit as needed, etc. \r\n\r\n Yeah, I can certainly understand that... I'm not particularly advocating you actually do it, so much as just talking about how it could be done. \r\n\r\n Now, if I can get VirtualPC to work well with my computer, I'm hoping that I can install CorelDraw and DreamWeaver on that -- that would be great, since I wind up doing all my writing, browsing etc. in OS/2... \r\n\r\n What problems are you having? Are they driver related, performance? --\r\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \r\n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \r\n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\r\n-------------------------------------------------------------------

Maybe I need to buy the addons for that. That's really the only way VPC would be viable, if I could open up files via some kind of "shared" folder that links to actual files on my OS/2 machine. I'd hate for my VPC session to be corrupted and have all my Help Desk stuff trapped in one big corrupted, useless file...

I think it also depends a lot on which version you have... 5 was a lot better than 4, and if you have 4, you can contact innotek for a free upgrade to 5. --\r\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \r\n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \r\n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\r\n-------------------------------------------------------------------
