"Can Linux run my DOS based software such as dBase5?"

Try it on a Virtual DOS Machine using VirtualBox.

Even my 32 bit and 64 bit computers won’t run my old dBase5 programs. I have to use DOSBox which is like a virtual box.

Thanks for all the pertinent advice and help, but just entered octogenarian period in my life, and just as soon not learn anything new if I can avoid it.
