What did I do wrong. I was going to delete everything and try again, but I receive "access denied" when I try to del the zipped files.My e-mail add is tbryant1601 AT msn DOT com. I am a newbie trying to use a compiler and was using this in conjunction with a self-study course. Been a long time since I have used DOS and am a bit rusty to. I am working with Windows 98 system.Thank You. Tom Bryant Full installation instructions are given in the file readme.1st. Specifically, you seem to have either forgotten to add these lines to autoexec.bat: set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH% or you need to reboot for the changes to take effect. You probably don't need to reinstall everything. Certainly, deleting the zip files will make no difference. Take a proper look at readme.1st and ask again if there is anything you don't understand. ps. Please can you turn off HTML in your mailer and set the line length to something more sensible (about 65-70 is ok).
