I have a question about Do I still need CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT?:

While running clipper complied program, it requires that config.sys file should have FILES=50, if not file open error comes in case of Win-ME how to overcome this problem?

Yes, you DO still need config.sys in the C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\EBD folder which reads

To change this setting in Me, you use the PerVMFiles parameter in System.ini

See this MS note.
