Are you making changes with dBASE open? If so, that's your problem. If
dBASE is open, when you close it, the values that are in memory get
rewritten to the .ini file. Instead, use something like Notepad to work
on the PLUS.INI file. However, be sure to use the version of the file
that is actually used by dBASE. Before you close it, in the Command
Window, type:

? _app.iniFile

In the output pane you should get a fairly lengthy path, and it may not
be the one you're editing ...
