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

Problem

Solutions: The Saber Menu is somewhat similar to Novell's menu system. It uses an ASCII text file compiled to binary format. The ASCII file is a .DAT file, while the file that does the work is a binary file with the extension of .SRC.
The format is something like this:

MENU 03, WordPerfect 5.1 {Display Options}
ITEM WordPerfect 5.1 {Execution Options}
EXEC first command for WordPerfect (Such as H:)
EXEC second command for WordPerfect (Such as FIXBIOS)
EXEC third command for WordPerfect (Such as WP.EXE)

After the .DAT file is created, it is then compiled and run.

When troubleshooting with customers who are using the Saber Menu, you should check the ASCII (.DAT) file to find out if they are using any WordPerfect startup switches (e.g., /nt, /u).
