Takes Long Time To ASCII Files Running WP Und |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is running WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS in the OS/2 DOS compatibility box. While retrieving ASCII files into WP from List Files, the customer gets the message "DOS Text Conversion In Progress," but the file does not retrieve. Solutions: The problem is not that files cannot be retrieved, but that the extreme amount of time it takes to retrieve a file causes the user to think that the machine has locked. To work around the problem, the user can press Ctrl-F5 to retrieve ASCII text files. Other OS/2 users have found that they can retrieve ASCII files under List Files by adjusting Idle Sensitivity to around 95 and Idle Second to around 5, found under DOS Settings in OS/2. Note: This problem has been corrected in WP 6.0. Status: Sent to Development ***|sent to dev|*** Press Enter on link token. |
