Codeview-EXPANDED memory-a solution

[ILENE JOHNSON]

A few months ago, I posted a problem I was having with Microsoft C and
expanded memory.  In short - I was using an IBM PS/2 model 60 with 
expanded memory and when I wanted to use expanded memory and codeview 
via the "cv /E progname" I was getting "EMM software error" and was getting 
bounced out of the program.  Microsoft didn't know the answer and at first 
was claiming this wasn't even their error message - it was because I found 
it in their book.  Finally, I found the solution.  The answer is in 
how expanded memory is configured on your machine.  For codeview to work 
with expanded memory, the expanded memory must be CONTIGUOUS expanded 
memory.  I got out my reference disk and fiddled with the addresses, so 
that my expanded memory would be in contiguous space and it worked! And 
by the way, all the other stuff that used the old addresses(since I 
was fiddling with addresses) works also!

Now I can just hear some of you more advanced people saying "But of 
course!".  Before you jump to say this, keep in mind that I got a lot 
of E mail from people saying "I had the same problem and I never *did* 
figure it out!"  

Happy Computer!
