WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: A user has a number of documents created using the German WordPerfect 5.0 (Language Code: DE). He is now using the Swiss German version of WordPerfect (Language Code: SD). Because the language codes are contained in the document prefix, there is no easy way to convert every one of his 900 or so documents so that the language code in the document is SD instead of DE. The best solution seems to be to rename the dictionary, thesaurus, .LRS and hyphenation files to DE (i.e., WP{WP}DE.LEX, and then change the default language code to DE.
