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

Problem

Symptoms: When a customer pressed Alt-R, which is the hotkey to execute RightWriter in WordPerfect, a macro was invoked which turned Redline On/Off, rather than starting RightWriter. Solutions: The customer had searched for a macro named ALTR.WPM and none was found. However, the customer had selected the SHORTCUT.WPK keyboard. The Shortcut keyboard has a macro named ALTR.WPM which turns Redline On/Off. The customer did not anticipate using Redline, therefore, the user deleted the Alt-R macro from the Shortcut keyboard. Now, when the user executes RightWriter by pressing Alt-R, RightWriter works correctly.

Another possible solution is to simply select the Original keyboard in WP.
