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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is running two applications of WordPerfect at the same time on the same computer. Each with different .SET files. The program is first loaded using the /R option to load into expanded memory. The program is loaded the second time redirecting the virtual file. During the second load the user tries to load into expanded memory with the /R option, but receives an error. WP loads normally but not into expanded memory. Not being able to load both applications of WP into expanded memory slows the running of both applications down considerably. The user has Intel Above board with EMM.SYS ver 4.0 revision A with 2 meg expanded memory. Solutions: It is feasible to load two copies of WP simultaneously; however, they cannot multitask. It is not feasible, with the amount of memory that he has, to load both copies with the /R option.
