SYSEDIT????

[Robert G Pielke]

For some reason, I can not longer access the AUTOEXEC.BAT file in
SYSEDIT. Anyone have an idea how I can get it back?? (BTW, I can access
it in all the other ususal ways, i.e., Write, Notepad, File Mgr., and EDIT.)

The probable reason is that the combined size of AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS,
WIN.INI, and SYSTEM.INI has grown and now exceeds 64K bytes. I had
the same problem several years ago when I was using PCL fonts and had
umpteen lines in the [printer] sections of WIN.INI for each typeface
and each printer.

SYSEDIT looks for it as c:\autoexec.bat. Either you set your autoexec hidden,
moved it, or the string in sysedit got corrupted. in which case you could re-
install sysedit or use a hex editor to fix it.
