| subject: | DeScribe Frequent Flyer `Upgrade` |
I recently paid to update my registration and receive the "Frequent Flyer Upgrade" to the DeScribe Voyager CD. Unfortunately I have found that the "upgrade" has removed the ability to operate correctly on a ZipStream compressed drive. The Voyager version works perfectly on the same drive, so it would appear that they added something to the FFU that bollixes things. I posted a question about this in the "Support Forum" on their web site and received no constructive answer, so I am posting here to ask if anyone here has developed a ZAP or patch to deal with this. I suspect the problem is somewhere in their startup code which checks for a network drive, as the release supposedly will not work on a network and I have already seen at least one program (ZOC) which confuses a ZipStream drive with a network drive and requires a "/NONET" parameter to work on one. I would look into this myself, but I'm an IBM mainframe person, not an OS/2 programmer ( other than a little bit of Rexx fiddling). Can anyone help with this?
