I thought 4.5 was the last DOS version, though we may have had one for
the 4.8 release.

If it doesn't run, how do you know it's 5.0?

On the other hand, my old backups do include DOS binaries for 5.0,
but I don't recall any 5.0 release under DOS.

Who says it doesn't run?
It runs just fine and (I have PFVER=ON) the version number reads 5.0.09RN3
Is there any other way of determining the real version number?
And how do you explain that OUTS works fine when I run that version of
rclerk, but doesn't work with the Native version of 5.0.09?
