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

Problem

Symptoms: Pressing F5, F5 used to show the files in the last displayed directory with the cursor on the last file used. Now, if the customer last displayed a directory on drive C:, pressing F5, F5 displays the default Documents directory (or default startup directory if no Documents directory is specified). If the customer selects a directory on drive D:, F5, F5 works as expected. The customer is using MS DOS 4.01 on an Acer 1125 computer. Solutions: The problem actually lies with the customer's XMS (Extended Memory Specification). For example, Novell's XMS NET 3 causes the network drive to be interpreted as a disk drive rather than a hard drive. Since the F5, F5 feature is not designed to work on a disk drive, the unsuspecting customer encounters what appears to be a problem with the software when in fact the program is working as designed.
