WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The PLEADING.WPM macro that ships with WP 6.0 DOS appears to lock if the top and/or bottom margins are set to zero (0). The variables used in the macro for the margin settings are not checked to see if they are less than the printer's minimum allowable margins. Solutions: The macro does not actually lock. The "locking" is the result of the macro not being able to exit the Watermark substructure because of an error message encountered ("Too Much Text"). The system does not actually lock up; it simply gets caught in a loop that checks to see if the program is back to the edit screen (document screen) and loops to exit the substructure if it is not. Because of the error message, the condition is never true and the program loops endlessly until canceled, at which time the cursor is found to be still in the Watermark.

To avoid this problem, it would be necessary to have the macro establish the allowable minimum margins and compare these against the values input by the user in the dialog box of the macro.
