I've had similar problem just recently when they
"upgraded" the Compaq at work running NT. I start
sam from the DOS cmd line with a filename, the file
can be opened in sam, the menus, cut/paste, etc
work, until I click in the command window. Then
everything freezes. As far as I know there were
no OS software changes (the system boots off the
network - I'm not even supposed to know there is
a C:\ drive) and as this is a contract job that
was supposed to end a month ago I just chalked it
up to MS garbage and didn't think I should bother
mentioning it.
Funny thing is, every once in a while sam does work,
but there is nothing consistent I can see as to why.
Wish I could help . . .
