Those in the Win95 echo are saying, turn it off.  That's not a proper
solution.  It should have been properly tested to start with.

Many DOS programs work flawlessly under Win95.  What WP DOS 6.0 was
doing was taking forever to print, or mouse movement seemed as if there
was a long chain of submarine officers passing on each mouse movement. 
I've never seen anything like it.  Regardless of what amount of
XMS/EMS/DPMI memory amounts specified, it ran frame by frame...  Very
strange.  The mouse in Bluewave, Silver Xpress, QuickBBS setup, Febbs,
Newsworthy, TheDraw, etc all are instantaneous.  I dunno... :)

In a pure DOS session, or when I had the 386-DX40 with 4mb of ram in
here and DOS 6.22, 6.0 ran flawlessly, and no printer/mouse delay.
 BW>      My most recent "problem" was a table: 2 columns by
 BW> 4 rows.  I had joined A3 and A4 and placed a graphic at

 BW> top of A4 (i.e., the center of the joined cells).  I

 BW> finally split the 2 cells apart again and put the
 BW> graphic where it belonged!  (There were no table lines,
 BW> anyway.)
At least the Page Preview worked correctly.   Did you do a reveal
codes?  I've found that hidden text font changes even when no text with
the larger scaled font is typed, often can create very strange
formatting problems you'd never expect to occur....   Just a thought...
