WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS is disabling two of the customer's executable files or commands. The customer has two programs in his path to allow him to execute them virtually anywhere. These are Keeptrack and Viewfax. When the customer goes into WordPerfect from a DOS prompt and then exits WordPerfect, typing the command to go into either program results in a "Bad Command Or Filename" message. In order to execute either command he has to reboot. Solutions: The customer had a batch file in the C:\ directory called WP.BAT. This file changed the path, then started WP. By removing the PATH statement from the batch file, the problem was solved.
