Despite making the changes to the 4DOS.INI file and loading SHARE via
config.sys, I am still getting the 'Access denied "G:\QWOK\00C50BFB.000"'
error message and FrontDoor doesn't get past the creation of that log file.

I tried three times "00C50BFB, 3C82F4B9, 091BA20C" and the file extension
was always the same -- .000; so I don't think it is the 4DOS swap file
because if I understood the directions in the help file, the swap file
would have an extension of .4SW   ???

Since SHARE is an executable command, could I insert it into my Windows BTM
file?  If I could do that, I could probably use TurboPower's MARK (before I
load SHARE) to mark that section of memory and then use their RELEASE (to
clear the memory space after Windows is finished).  Do you have any
suggestions or opinions in this regard?

           Cheers ... Gerald
