"File Has Been Modified" After Retrieving/Sav
DocumentID: 625999
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 1:41:31 PM

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer receives the message "File Has Been Modified" when attempting to save a file, but the user did not modify the document. The file is a large document. When the user simply retrieves the file and then presses F7 to save without making any changes, the message displays indicating that the file has been modified. Solutions: The program is working as designed. In this case, the customer is retrieving a WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS document into WP 6.0 DOS. Once the file is retrieved into WP 6.0, a new (WP 6.0) prefix is assigned to the document which causes the program to interpret a modification to the file; thus, the "File Has Been Modified" message occurs. Note: This situation occurs with any WP 5.1 document (large or small).
