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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is starting WordPerfect with the "/D-I:" startup option. The I: drive is not mapped to anything. Even though the system is defaulted to the customer's personal user directory (which is H:), when they type WP/D-I: the program tries to write the temporary files to the F:\LOGIN directory. The customer is then given a "Directory in Use" error message. Shouldn't WP try to write the temporary files in the default directory if the "/D" option is directed to an invalid path? Solutions: This is a usability issue. This situation may be addressed in a future version of the program. Please watch the Software Change Notices.
