All our office computer works on windows 2000-NT.
We have a DOS based application here which runs in
all other versions of windows but 2000-NT.

The error is "The exception occurred in WDISPLAY1#"

Can you please advise me what to do?

Hello,

Please look in the Application event log and see if there is an associated
error message. We need to see what event ID and error code you are
getting. As well, please post the exact error message from the details
section of this event.

However, it is very possible that an application that is this old may not
run on Windows 2000. We do have a tool that can provide an environment for
running programs that more closely reflects the behavior of either
Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows NT 4.0. This tool is talked
about in the following article;
