Notes
It has been 25years since v0.6.
Your operating system may not like either of these files. Try these:
WinXP-SP3
Extract to Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents.
1. Alt-Tab to desktop.
2. Copy over your savegame into My Documents.
3. Run MEXCOMAP.EXE, find your savegame here, not in the game folder.
3. Edit, then save. Ignore error messages, if any.
4. Copy edited savegame back to over Savegame folder.
5. Reload the save.
6. Check all your labs for unassigned personel.
If mexcomap.exe is located somewhere other than My Documents, the program may fail to open the selected savegame.
Other Windows versions may work similar (not tested) since a similar My Documents folder appears to be common.
