I have a program that ran just fine in a DOS window. Now
all I get is an error that says: "This program works with
80 colomn displays. Yours is only 40."

Every other program works OK. Command prompt is OK. I
tried all sorts of combinations in "properties" and the
shortcut. Even made new shortcuts.

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Have you tried to start it from a batch with a
mode 80,25
just in front of your program ?
