    DOS SET command prior to starting Easy Project:

          SET CLIPPER=V010;E000;R032;F030;



    LAPTOP OWNERS
    -------------

    screen.


    DROPING TO DOS/BACKUPS/RESTORE NOTES

    The Backup and Restore options all drop to DOS and execute
    from the DOS prompt.  Depending on the size of your projects, you
    may experience an error message stating you do not have enough
    memory.  Try exiting Easy Project and executing the Backup or
    Restore functions first before retrieving any projects.

    OUT OF ENVIRONMENT ERRORS
