Hi CH Choong,

I have the same problem with a similar application.

Have you now found a solution?

Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt
Rightclick the Command Prompt>Properties>Layout tab
There you can reconfigure the size of the DOS windows
to your satisfaction. When done click Apply and OK.

See http://www.techsmith.com/products/sn...rials/7011.asp for one
possibility.
Also, there were some DOS TSR screen capture utilities that might possibly
work if loaded to the same VM.

Hi XP - WNP

Your solution is OK if the DOS application can be located in a windows
screen.
In my application, as in the problem that CH Choong outlined, the DOS
image is in Full screen and cannot be located in a small windows screen
following the normal procedure that you advised.

However, I have now found a solution! If CH Choong has not already
found a solution, I will be pleased to communicate it to him. It is
rather tortuous, but it works!
