WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: A customer adds text to a file and the document is not rewritten on the screen. He can press Home, Home, Down Arrow and the screen is rewritten, but he feels this is too much trouble. Why does the rewrite option under Ctrl-F3,3 only rewrite the screen and not the entire document? Solutions: Rewrite (Ctrl-F3,3/R) will not rewrite the full document only the current screen. This is working as designed. If Ctrl-F3, 3 were to rewrite the entire document, customers would have to wait just as long as pressing Home, Home, Home, Down for the screen to rewrite. This can take quite a while on large documents.

A user can write a macro that does "Home, Home, Home, Down, GoTo, GoTo." This will rewrite the document and return the user to the same place in the document.
