Hello,

I use a FOXPRO 2.6 application running under DOS.
On win98 systems, I could set the code page and keyb to match my needs through the autoexec.bat.
Now on win2k, I set autoexec.nt with these parameters:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\mode con codepage prepare=((850)C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ega.cpi)
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\mode con codepage select=850
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\keyb cf

and I still end up with US keyboard and the default code page.

Any ideas?

Thanks
