I have a program developed in Clipper but I don't the the version. I tried
to run this program on my P3-800 wich is too fast so I got a runtime error
R6003. Does someone know a patch so I can use this program ??
I know there is a patch that correct directly the .exe file for Turbo
Pascal, but is there one for Clipper ????
Thanks all

Isn't it making it to your news server?

The best solution is to download and link new version of CA-Tools. But if
you have no sources, then use the following patch that replaces the DIV CX
instruction that causes the R6003 error with two NOP instructions.
Use a hex editor to find the following sequence of bytes in your program:
B8 52 17 8B CA 33 D2 F7 F1
Replace the F7 with 90 and also replace the F1 with 90.
Some remarks:
1. If the .exe file is compressed (e.g. by Blinker), it cannot be patched.
2. I don't know if MILLISEC() will work after patching :-(
