        SYMPTOM:  Problems with TaskMAX & SuperStor with Quicken 5

  ISSUE/PROBLEM:  
Intuit has been getting reports from customers using Stacker from
Stac Electronics and now from customers using SuperStor from
AddStor that Quicken 5.0 has certain problems when executing from
a compressed drive.  

It is Novell's recommendation that where possible users should run
Quicken from a non-compressed drive or from a floppy.


TaskMAX will not work when Quicken 5 is run. Apparently, Quicken
intercepts all keyboard input and TaskMAX is not getting any
keystrokes. This does not cause TaskMAX to fail. It only means that
you cannot switch tasks while Quicken is running. When you exit
Quicken it will restore the keyboard and TaskMAX will function
normally.

Intuit Technical Support recommends the use of the /K switch to
allow TaskMAX access to the keyboard. Use the following command:

     Q /K
