>>I have trouble shelling out to ACADR12 from 3D Studio V.4. When the ACAD.BAT >>file runs I get "out of environment space" message after each line. I have never tried to start acad from 3DS, but i know this error message. The environment space is independent from yourt RAM, it can be set in config.sys with a command like SHELL= C:\'somewhere'\command.com /e:1024 where the /e:1024 sets the size in BYTES ! Just try to do the proper settings for acad BEFORE you start 3DS. Copy all lines beginning with SET in your acad.bat to your 3DS.bat, so the settings are correct when you shell out to DOS for acad. Hope this helps Peter K.
