Basically consisted of modifying the mknorm.bat file by enclosing some arguments in " ", and then placing a blank line between all the IF statements. You can view the doc at http://www.koyote.com/users/stheller/pcdos.htm. It worked! Who knows why? So now I am able to compile the examples, but am still unable to compile my simple programs, eg Hello. I noticed that the samples are listed as CC Files in explorer with different icons than my Notepad files. What's up with that? I downloaded Rhide but have not installed it yet. Could that help? Or just complicate matters further? TIA
