I have been a user of Datastar till today
because of its flexibility. Recently, I
have a new computer under Windows 98 platform
and new Window DOS.

I use Formsort to sort the database generated
using Datastar. However, I cannot do a Formsort
with a message "FCB Unavailable". I have no
problem using the old machine under the old
MS DOS environment. I understand that this has
to do with the file control block and I need to
configure my CONFIG.SYS inorder to make it work.
I am not sure how to do it. Can someone with this
knowledge give me a helping hand. Thank you.
