When I SET DECIMALS TO from the command line, the change does not get
saved in the INI file and the next time I start dBase, it reverts to the
default of 2. The change only gets saved when it is made in the Desktop
Properties OR if you change them in command line then go check what the
current setting is and click OK to exit from the Desktop Properties
without making any change.

When I set safety off from the command line, the setting does get saved
to the INI file as the setting is retained after restarting dBase.

Is there a rule of thumb to determine which settings get saved and which
ones don't get saved when you change them in the command line or in a PRG?

Cheers,

Gaetano.
