The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: QUESION:
Why would you not be able to see the license number in the Help
screen after installing the program?

ANSWER:
If you press F1 (Cancel) when you are prompted to enter the
license number, WordPerfect bypasses the license number and
enters the program. If you then press F3, no license number
appears.

QUESTION:
Can you insert your license number in the help screen even after
you have installed WordPerfect?

ANSWER:
Yes. There are two ways to add the license number after
WordPerfect has been installed. The first would be to re-install
the program. This however, may not be a pleasant option. The
second choice would be to rename the WP{WP}.SET and WP{WP}US.LCN
file. After the two files are renamed they will not be
available for the program to read. The program will therefore
prompt the user for their license number upon entering
WordPerfect the first time. (The .SET and .LCN files will BOTH
need to be renamed if re-entering a license number.) See memo
WP51_095 for information on a startup option available.

If a license number is not entered through the auto install the
user will be prompted for a number before entering the program
for the first time.


QUESTION:
With the new installation program, can one still update without
reinstalling entire program?

ANSWER:
Yes. There is an option in the installation program to update
specific files. (This option would be used when a new update is
received.)


QUESTION:
Does the license number copy to the original diskettes?

ANSWER:
The information for the license number is saved into the
WP{WP}.SET AND WP{WP}US.LCN files. The license number would only
be copied to the original diskettes if the user started the
program from them or if the two above files were copied to the
disks.
