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

Problem

Symptoms: The wrong SET file was accessed when a user started WordPerfect from the user's home directory. Solutions: It turned out that there was an extra SET file in that user's directory. If the user renamed the setup file, then WP would pull the correct settings. Also, the /PS option in the environment file was pointing to an invalid drive (F:\APPS\WP51). Changing this to a valid drive (/PS=X:\) corrected the problem.

If there is an invalid drive specified in the environment file, WP will first look in the current directory for a setup file. If no setup file exists there, WP will go to the directory that contains the WP.EXE file.
