Two possible ways...your Pascal may (though I doubt it) have a neat
little routine called 'exec' otrr 'system' or 'chain' yththat does a load
and go of a com file.  Otherwise, the only way to do a chain is to
load the com file in memory wuititha  relocatable loader routine and jump
to it.  There are a couple of soon to be released software pacakges
that allow com files to be rubnn from other programs and then continue
to execute those programs.  So far they do not include pascal, and at 
any rate are not yet available to the general public.
