    Hi Folks,

    I wanted to install TAS Books 1 on an old PC which has no floppy drive (I robbed it for another machine).

    Problem is TAS gives an error when I try to backup to the hard drive (if floppy drive installed comes up with a radio style tick box for save to A: or save to other location; if no floppy installed doesn't open screen, gives a Undefined Error!).

    I have tried using subst command, while it works with the command line, it doesn't fool TAS.

    Any ideas?

    Dave

    Quick follow up, since I posted this I found this program (licensed under GPL!). Took me a few weeks, but this is the ticket:

    Just in case anybody else in the same pickle:
