ASCII Characters With Sidekick, Chart2000, Ti |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer was using North Edge Software Corporation's Timeslips (2.30A version). In WordPerfect, the customer pressed Alt-Left-Shift key to bring up Timeslips. The Timeslips window popped up, the top of the screen looked fine, but the bottom of the screen was in ASCII code. The customer tried /NE/NC/NK/NH/NF, tried executing Timeslips from a blank screen, and tried starting the computer vanilla, all of which made no difference. Solutions: The customer needs to have the Normal Font Only option selected rather than the 512 Characters option selected in the Colors/Fonts/Attributes screen (Shift-F1, 2, 1). Once the Screen Font was changed to Normal Font Only the problem disappeared (see STR Resource Guide on Display -- troubleshooting number #15). NOTE: Other customers using Chart2000 by Softkey Software Products, Inc., and Sidekick experienced similar problems. These programs were displaying Cyrillic or ASCII characters when the text characters should have been normal. Selecting Normal Font Only corrected the problem. *This information is given as a troubleshooting option. |
