Full-Screen Command-Line Mode in VISTA

For near two decades I have been distributing a DOS software application I've written. It operates in full-screen mode. It works fine with Windows XP and earlier. With Win98 and earlier one can toggle between full screen and a smaller window with Alt-Enter.

I've been told it won't run under VISTA since there is no provision for a full-screen "Command line" mode.

I haven't found a way to start my program's graphical mode in anything except full-screen (Borland C++).

As one can guess, I really, really don't want to have to learn more modern software and rewrite my application.

Any practical suggestions?
