I think my MS for Windows problems is their automatic conversion program
(which did a terrible job on my stuff) and then the 'cleaning up' I did to
get it to run. I just couldn't believe that MS for DOS runs 20 to 30 times
faster than MS for Win, in a DOS window under Win95. I've started writing
up all of the formulae and hope to reenter them from scratch in a few days
to see what happens. If I get that to run, then I'll add in the variables
that I currently need TAS to calculate and maybe will have a system on MS
that I can use.
As an alternative, I have everything coded in Excel and just need to code
the data access modules (if I can find that file library thing I bought) to
eliminate the OLE interface that doesn't work worth a darn. OLE uses the
symbol as well as the chart name, and I change the symbol every 3 months,
thereby requiring a new connection. The current, convoluted approach is
something I don't even want to consider teaching to my dad. :)

Guy

It is your Swap file !!
Root\filename.extension
(C:\Win386.swp)
RAM-Disc is (used to be) an add-in card (in slot on Motherboard) and
primarely used for RAM extension. A card with chip(s) on it, a virtual disk,
fast accessable (and also like your video-card is an add-in card too).
Present Mem chips(RAM-chips), for speed and capacity, have outdated
these cards. In old DOS days, 4kB used to be the smallest first mem capacity
available, and 1 Mb was unbelievable giganticly large, however soon became
to less/to short for the newer released applications and an extension to mem
was
made by adding a (virtual) disc, eg the on-card's chip).
Guy's indicator problems (in general) could be due to:
-their complexness (formulation - and calculation wise)
-the software application's file accessability (exe, dat, dll, ini etc.)
-the software system's operating environment + accessability (installed OS +
disk access system)
-the PC hardware's accesability (installed Disk, Burst, RAM, Processor,
Motherboard)
-the read/write process (between Disk, RAM, Processor, Compilers for
translations etc.
and also v.v.) when running in the application(MetaStock) program

If someone knows where the scratch area is located, I may have a
solution (former TallTree systems Jet/RAMDISK user - I guess that
dates me <g>).
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP ?
