Problems With WordPerfect 5.1 Running Under W |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: WordPerfect tries to access Drive A and B Add /NC under optional parameters or have the user change cursor speed to normal. Unrecoverable Application Error in WP51 The .PIF file cannot have a startup directory if the user is doing associating. To associate, it should be WP.PIF and not WP.EXE Mouse is not working in a window. Neither do View Document, Equations, and Graphics work in a window. Users must be in a full window. The reason for the mouse not working is that Windows retains control of the mouse when running a DOS application in a window. You can't have two applications controlling the mouse at one time. The reason graphics does not work when running under a window is that WP tries to change the display into a graphic mode, and the computer is already in graphics mode. Windows will not let a DOS application change screen modes. NOTE: There are no "pat answers" to any problems of WP 5.1 running under Windows. The solution given has worked in some cases and is designed to simply be a troubleshooting tool. |
