MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET FILE TYPE TO BINARY DURING ALL TRANSFERS.  THIS IS
ESPECIALLY TRUE IF YOU FTP, THEN DOWNLOAD WITH KERMIT.  HOPE THIS HELPS.

Is it possible to edit footnotes on WP5.1 (Dos) so that you can see
ALL the footnotes at once, rather than just the one you are working
on?

I actually have to half-edit them by hand on paper when doing a large
academic piece cuz I can never remember if the footnote before was
Ibid p. 47 or Ibid p. 48, etc.

And if isn't possible to edit mulitple footnotes at once, can the
wonderful gang down at WP HQ work that into the much rumored v. 6.0?

Subject:      ZIPPED WP mini manul

Per suggestions, I have sent e-mail to get wpdocs.zip.  It arrived and I then
attempted to UNZIP it.  THREE systems staff techies also attempted to unzip
these.

According to PKZIP the only files contained in WPDOCS.ZIP that are free of
ZIP errors is WPFONT.WP and README.TXT.  PKZIP then unzips those two and
indictes no errors.  ADVANCED.WP seems to be "lost".

README.TXT is fine.

When I attempt to retrieve WPFONT.WP into WordPerfect, the result is a
one-line string of ^A with the status line indicating that the page number is
45,168!!!!!!!!!!!!   Pressing Reveal Codes results in an immediate interrupt of
WordPerfect and extensive register dumps.

I've tried several "tricks" to get the corrupted WPFONT.WP file into
WordPerfect -- like, changing printer spec before retrieving, putting a couple
hard returns in before retrieving, which sometimes help with "weird" docs.
Still trash.

Has anyone else been having problems?

Any help would surely be appreciated.

Subject: searching for EOF

I was told by the WP help line that the only way to find an EOF is to mark it
with a character that will be unique in your file and then search for it.

You can't search for something until it is not found because at 'not found' the
cursor remains at the point from which the last search began.

Hi All,

I've been a tad busy lately and not reading the list closely.  This
discussion reminds me that I promised to post my footnote and endnote
stripping macros.  The last post I saw recommended not trying to put a
loop into the note stripping macro, but I think my macro deals with all
the (most likely) complications quite nicely.  Unfortunately, the most
up-to-date version is at home -- I'll bring it in and post it tomorrow.

Be prepared -- we are talking ~17Kb of macro here.  I'll UUENCODE then
mail it. You will have to find out how to deal with this if you don't
already know.

Organization: University of Oldenburg, Germany
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 1992 12:25:11 GMT

I've got an XT-Laptop with 640KB (of course). I haven't got a
harddisk but two 740KB-diskdrives. WordPerfect works fine with
this configuration :-)
Now the problem:
While loading WordPerfect of the two disks it doesn't load all
features: Many features it loads only if used. But after that
he know this feature all the time until exit WP.
For example:
I start WP normal with "WP". After loading I'm able to write
text. If I now try to mark a text-part WordPerfect loads the
Mark-Part just then. When I change the layout of the marked text
(for example CTRL+F8) he do it again.
Does there exist a start-option to tell WordPerfect to load all
features at the begin ?
Is there anywhere a makro doing that ??

Please e-mail me any suggestion to solve this problem

Thanks in advance

Subject:      help with MTEZ software

Monday, December 14, 1992  10:48am

I recently purchased a Zoom faxmodem [14400, v32bis].  It came with MTEZ
software, now supported by WordPerfect Corp.  The modem works great -
very fast file transfers with Zmodem protocol.  The fax is problematic,
however.

When I use ExpressFax option and try to (v)iew fax before sending, the
software runs through the fax conversion, then "displays" fax in a
manner that thoroughly upsets my ega montior and, worse, locks my
system.  The display appears to be at an incorrect frequency [?] with
several unfocused versions of the fax overlapping one another.

Any helpful thoughts on this will be much appreciated.

Subject:      RE: Editing footnotes

The following two macros let you edit all of the footnotes from a
document at once. Footnote.wpm takes all of the text from the
footnotes in document one then places it into document two. The
footnote number and the associated page are placed alongside each
footnote. Also, each footnote is separated with a page break in
document two. You can then edit the text from document two for each
footnote.

To place the edited text from document two back into the footnotes,
activate footnot2. This macro exits document two and returns you to
the original document in document one.

The footnote number and page number are enclosed within the outline
codes. Therefore make sure that you do not use the outline codes
within a footnote.

     Okay, several have posted replies, but I can guarantee a method 
which will work.  Instead of printing to an lpt port, print to a network
queue.  In the printer setup choose "port" or "2".  Choose "8" for other.
Then type in the name of your server followed by "/" then the name of
the print queue that is serviced by the printer.  Answer "Yes" to the
next two questions that WordPerfect asks and you are set up to print.
This is probably the best approach to take.

Sure, define the page as if you were printing on labels. If you want two
coloms, define a page with two labels. Labels are considered as separate
pages and therefore you can use footnotes.

This is how I do it:
1.  Define a label (shift F8,Page,paper size/type, add new def).
2.  Set up 4 labels (logical pages)/physical page.
        1.  Label Size
                        Width   4.25
                        Height  5.5
        2.  Number of Labels
                        Columns 2
                        Rows    2
        3.  Top Left Corner
                        Top     0
                        Left    0
        4.  Distance between labels
                        Column  0
                        Row     0
        5.  Label Margins
                        Left    0.3
                        Right   0.3
                        Top     0.3
                        Bottom  0.3
3.  Use this new paper size/type definition by placing it at the top of
your document.
4.  Insert your graphic on logical page 1  (rotated 180 degrees, you may
also want it centered, etc.).
5.  3 Hard page breaks.
6.  On the 4th logical page enter your text.

                        Happy Holidays!!!

Hope this helps.

Hi

     I have a Quick-basic program that creates a graphics image on the screen.
I want to import the image into Wordperfect documents.  GRAB.COM does the
trick, but the explanation for GRAB.COM states that resolution is generally
less than direct importing of the Figure.  So I wondered if anyone had a simple
BASIC routine to write the graphics screen in WPG format, or in a format that
could be converted to WPG or imported directly into WP5 or Drawperfect?  Any
suggestions appreciated.

They aren't scanned -- they are screen captures.  I'd say that many are
from CGA resolution displays, or blown-up from a small area of a better
res display.  Also, the copyright of many images must be suspect (e.g.
the Disney characters).  

Generally, I'd say they aren't worth downloading.

There was one operating recently at this site

but service has been suspended.  The server is still active
however.  We are looking for a site that will service the list.

Subject: more footnotes

	While on the subject of footnotes: is there any way to use footnotes
with two or more columns? This seems like it should be simple enough, but I
can't do it. If I retrieve a document that has footnotes and then activate 
newspaper columns, all the footnotes are converted to endnotes? Any solutions?
