It happened to me recently. It was a conflict between my expanded
memory manager and my disk cache. Setting it up so that the disk cache
worked in extended memory not used by the expanded memory manager fixed the
WP view document problem.

Organization: Oxford University VAX 6620

This may be simple problem but I would appreciate some advice.  In
re-formatting bibliographic references, I need to replace underlining of single
words of varied length with bolding.  If I search and replace just the [UND]
code with [BOLD] then the whole document after the first code becomes bolded. 
I have tried a variety of strategies but cannot find any easy way.  Am I being
silly or is it really difficult?

Thanks for you help,

Just to add to your question, I have had exactly the same problem.
That is, you make a text file in unix or have a text file on unix with
the - character. For some reason WP5.1 knows only the [-] character.
What to do about a problem like this. WP is powerful, extremely
powerful, but to allow a stupid thing like this pass them by..... tis,

The product is called MoreFonts and you can now get an 'international'

product.  I recently bought a copy for (pounds)150.00 or so, from a
company called 'PowerUp' in the UK.  If it's of any help you could fax
MicroLogic in California on (415) 652-7079.  BTW we use the product a

There are a very few printer drivers (three, I think) at zeus.ieee.org,
probably in directory /fidonet/msdos/wordperf or something very
similar. You can find the correct directory by giving the command
ls -lR (which is a recursive directory search) from the top directory.

With V6.0 on the way, does anyone know if WordPerfect has or is interested
in building a Hypertext or Hypermedia package.  It seems to me that with
WordPerfect it would quite simple to add.

Hypertext should be the next generation for the word processor.  Let's face
it--paper has its place--electronic document retreival is where it's
happening.

I don't know of ftp sites, but WPCorp maintains a BBS that I'm pretty
sure has printer drivers available for downloading. The BBS number is
(801)225-4414.

Also, if you call WP Printer support, they often ship the driver you
need at no charge.... The laser/postscript/ibm printer support

Subject:      please wait messasge in view document

Hi all,
Has anyone ever encountered a "please wait" message while viewing a document
(Sh-F7,6) which froze and caused you to reboot? It scrolled the document
along the screen and got stuck at a point in text where there is nothing
special. removing that text helped, but typing soemthing else instead froze
it again. There's no memory space problem (I played around with the memory
allocation each time I rebooted during the process of trying to find out
what went wrong). It seems like WP is looking for something it can't
find and then just chokes - but since there are so many possibilities of
which memory address could cause the problem, and since I use a few TSR
programs, it would take days to isolate the cause (assuming it IS a memory
problem).

Any suggestions?

This is a terrific laundry list of common WP tasks.  You might come up with a w
ay to score it so that test takers may be divided into beginner, intermediate,
proficient, highly proficient.  I would also add something about changing the d
isplay features, or how to add and edit long doc names (there was recently a he
ated discussion abou this on WP51-L).  Please let me know if this is to be publ
ished anywhere (maybe PC Magazine, being more geared toward supervisory staff,
might want to publish it as a diagnostic for incoming support staff).

Here's a hyphen-related issue that bothers me no end.  I use a lot of
dashes in my work: Ctr-V, -, -.  In its automatic hyphenation, WP treats
this as any old character and prompts me to place a regular hyphen just
before or after it.  I haven't been able to figure out a workaround,
either.  Isn't this problem readily fixable by our friends in Utah?

I agree.  I think a MUCH better test would be

1) hand someone a document and ask them to duplicate it anyway they
want to.  Make it include tables, charts, graphs, etc.  to your hearts
content.  The "test" is how fast they can do it.

2)  have them edit an already created document and make it look
like some predetermined format.  Again, the "test" is how fast they
can do it.


Much more practical, and much less academic.

How is it done

I once did such a thing for replace UND with ITA. You start looking
for [und] (right search), turn on block, left-search for [UND], put
block in italics, and delete the underline codes, I think by moving
the cursor one position to the left. All this assuming that WP's
underwater screen has been turned on. Although I did not do this, this
could be checked by {SYSTEM}.
   Well, while I'm at it, let me ask a question. I wrote a macro
yesterday for aligning words in example sentences and glosses. You
have to manually indicate which word is the farthest to the left, then
start the macro, move to the word to be aligned, and press enter (this
is done by first assigning the horizontal position {SYSYEM}hpos~ to a
variable, invoking {PAUSE} during which user must move cursor to word
to be aligned).
   Now I intended there to be a message at the status line when the
user has to move the cursor to the to be aligned word, but this
message is there only a split second or something just before WP
recognizes the {PAUSE} command after which the usual statusline
re-appears. Obviously this is hardly helpful. Any ideas?

Best, Ale.

A minor detail: I bought a fax modem recently (Zoom 9648 AFC) that came with
a telecommunications program called MTEZ. Also included with the package is
a notice that said that Magicsoft (who wrote MTEZ) was acquired by
Wordperfect. I guess this explains where WP got their communications package.

If anyone has this problem and is using speech synthesizers on their computer
it would be good to run fixbios before any of the tsr's.
Running fixbios after the tsr's causes problems with
wordperfect since wordperfect thinks other copies of
itself are being run when you try to load it for the first time
and then tries to do a timed backup.

YUCK!  Sounds like the latest word in the victory of style over
substance.

Subj:	RE: Footnotes: Incorrect & Unexpected Fonts

Problems with footnote fonts:

In the 'obvious fixes' tried, there is no mention of using a Footnote Option
code.  At the top of the document, set up all formatting you want for footnotes
(margins, font, line spacing etc), press Footnote, select Footnote (1), select
Options (4).  You get screen of esoteric stuff (like whether you want a 2" line
or full page line separator) - there is no need to change these.  Press Exit,
check there is a [Ftn Opt] code.  This establishes the format for all
subsequent footnotes.  Now set up the format for the main text.  Works every
time for me.

This may or may not really give you an idea of how well they understand
WordPerfect.....  Also - do you weight the results for those with fast
keyboard skills vs. slow keyboard skills?
