A run-time version of Microsoft Windows 2.x is loaded when you run Formbase 1.1

or later:
formbase
If this happens, you receive several file-open errors.
If you type
formbase.exe
the run-time version of Windows is not be executed and no errors occur.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Windows executes filenames with the .COM extension before it executes filenames
with .EXE extensions. There are two Formbase executable files, FORMBASE.COM and
FORMBASE.EXE. The first automatically loads the run-time version of Windows.
FORMBASE.COM should only be used if you do not have a copy of Windows installed
on your system. If you are running Formbase from Windows 3.0 or 3.1, make sure
you are entering the complete filename and extension (that is, FORMBASE.EXE).
