Hi,

I've followed the windows_door_install.txt but am trying to run
StarFight (by W&W Communications).  

The Door menu has (1) StarFight

ActionList for the door menu entry:

(DX) Exec /w DOSXTRN (win3  s10    c:\bbs\doors\starfght\starfght.exe -node=%3 -doorinfo=%P\door.sys

When I save the configuration and then I run the door, I get the following
brief message:

Error 1 Loading sbbsexec.dll

(I got the sbbsexec.dll and the dosxtrn.exe file from http://www.mysticbbs.com/downloads/prealpha/) and I'm running this BBS under Windows 7 32.  (Seemed like a good stepping stone to test out door setup as compared to Win7 x64 which is a bit more involved).   

According to the StarFight docs, I need to use -doorinfo to point to the door.sys file and the -node= for the node #.

Does this mean I have the wrong sbbsexec.dll file?  

Anyway, I guess i'll grab LoRD and try setting it up.  If that works, then Starfight is finicky. If not.. I have something else wrong.
