The following patch will bypass the logo on LOTUS 1-2-3.
Put 1-2-3 system disk in drive A.
Put DEBUG disk in drive B.
Set default drive to A> (ie: A: <ENTER>)
REN 123.EXE 123.TMP <ENTER>
Type B:DEBUG 123.TMP <ENTER>
-S CS:0100 LF000 3C FF 74 05 E8 A8 <ENTER>
You should see:
XXXX:04BF (If you cannot find this sequence, DO NOT CONTINUE.)
-E XXXX:04C2 90 90 90 <ENTER>
-W <ENTER> WRITING 15F00 BYTES
-Q <ENTER>
REN 123.TMP 123.EXE
1-2-3 will now bypass the logo and go right into a blank worksheet.
Everything above is as I found it Terry Ray's BUFFER BBS. I don't
know who contributed it, or I would credit them.
I don't like the idea of working on the 123 system diskette directly.
See my file 123HARD.PAT. Even if you don't have a hard disk, you can
use the patch shown there to make a working backup which will not
require you to have the system diskette in the drive. Make that
backup as shown on 123HARD.PAT, then make this patch.
I also don't know what version of Lotus this patch was written for,
but on mine (1A), I had to patch the patch:
-S CS:0100 LF000 3C FF 74 05 E8 <ENTER>
Otherwise, everything else seems ok.
