Allison, I know what the syntax for setver is...it just wouldn't work in
this instance and we didn't have the time to disassemble a 15 year old
application to determine why. It was just easier to get an old DOS
version and boot off a floppy. The app also wouldn't run from any disk
but the original factory 360k floppy disk. Even a CopyIIPC copy board I
used to have wouldn't copy it.
