WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Macros: certain macros would not work because the keyboard file had been changed. Solutions: 1> When the customer created the macros she was using the ENHANCED keyboard layout.

2> We checked her current layout, it was MACROS.

3> By changing back to the ENHANCED keyboard her Altkey macros worked fine. Causes: Different keyboard layouts have different macros and functions associated with them. If a keyboard layout is used that has a predefined macro or function mapped to a certain keystroke is used and the user tries to use a macro that is named with the same keystroke combination the macro will not run. The cause is that the keyboard mapping takes precedence over a macro with the same keystroke name.
