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

Problem

Solutions: If a user on a Novell Network edits a file that has been saved in a directory where the user has no delete rights, the edited file will be saved in the directory with the extension .BK! even if backup has not been turned on. This is because each time WordPerfect saves a file, it creates the .BK! file (a copy of the original file on disk) and saves the document on screen to the filename given in the save operation. If original backup is turned off, WP tries to delete this .BK! file. So, if the user does not have delete rights, the .BK! file remains. Giving the user delete rights will eliminate the duplicate file with the .BK! extension being saved.
