"Native".  By which you mean "Win32".  That's different from "DOS": try
running that on a DOS 6.2 or FreeDOS booted machine; I suspect you'll
find it doesn't work.

(ObRant: the native platform for filePro was Unix, long before an MS-Win
port
existed; "Native" was a poor choice of name there.  Yeah, yeah,
TRS-DOS; rada rada; probably still have some floppies around)

I'm sorry but I can't get Outlook to quote properly even though I have it
set to add a > to the text.  That's why I prefer top-posting.

In any case, I don't know what you are referring to.  I'm not trying to run
anything in DOS.  Both rclerk programs work fine in Windows.  What doesn't
work is PFOUTS in the Native version but it works in the DOS4GW version I
have.
