Marc,
happened to me as well. Only way I found was to save and reload, but in PBEM it is a problem. Should be ok next turn.
Problem caused by WiR being DOS program.

Hi
Read about your problem. You can air transfer the unit to an empty HQ and change airplane type there, then just transfer back.
Hope this helps.

I tried to run Wir 3.2 on Pentium III, 128 RAM, O.S. M.E.
The game works fine, but when I use the scenario editor for changing afv in a tank div. ( no problems when I edit a bde/rgt) I get an " insufficient memory" message.
I tried to save and reload and also to change the files number in System.ini( see Microsoft knowledege database), but no results.
Any idea ?

WIR is a DOS game, the system.ini file and the total amount of ram you have has absolutely no bearing on how the game plays in DOS mode under Windows. What you need is to get the best setup in DOS to maximize the amount of free DOS memory (the 1st 640K of ram) and in the Properties->Memory section when you right click on a DOS app desktop icon (or one in the bottom taskbar).
This ought to be a FAQ too, but it'll be hell to write.

It would only be temporary though, or someone would have to constantly post to the thread to keep it positioned near the front. Otherwise it would slip off the first screen, and most newcomers, I'll bet, don't go back to real old threads, or even know *how* to get to the old threads for that matter.
