Rebuild under Vista



Hellough:

I upgraded to Vista a few months ago and was happy to see that my
ancient 16-bit MicroFocus-SP2 software runs as happily as it did under
all the prior versions of Windows.

I seldom use Rebuild since I rarely have problems with files.
However,
I recently ran Rebuild (at the command prompt) and got "not a valid
win32 application". My software and the compiler work perfectly.

Strangely, If I make a shortcut to run Rebuild (with file name
specified)
it works perfectly.

Any ideas?

By the way, Murkosoft has not given up on DOS. I noticed that there
are new commands in the Vista version. One of which is ROBOCOPY,
(Robust Copy). I think this was in other versions of Windows.
