WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: A customer wants to know why the software was changed so that when he generates List #6 (list of figure box captions), if the caption has a [Center] code in it WP no longer strips the code in the list. Solutions: This is working as designed. On the 06/29/90 release of WP 5.1, WP changed the List function so that when it generated it stripped other formatting codes (e.g., [Center], [Flush Right], [Tab], etc...). When the program changed, it generated STRs because it stripped the same codes when generating a Table of Contents (which uses [Tab] and [Flush Right] codes in formatting the ToC). Because of the problems it caused with the ToC feature, it was changed back to the original format of not stripping the codes.

Currently, this is considered an enhancement request. A workaround for the customer is to have the customer block the List after it has been generated and do a Search/Replace. This searches for the code to be stripped and replaces it with nothing (the customer can write a macro to automate this procedure).
