WP 5.1 Win And WP 5.1 DOS Use Same .SET File |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: The customer has a SET WPC=/PS- environment variable, which redirects the SET files to the specified directory, in the login script for Novell. The customer is using WP DOS on the network and WordPerfect 5.1 for Windows on the hard drive. WP 5.1 DOS and WPWin 5.1 use the same .SET file written in the directory specified by the /PS switch. So, changes made in either version of the program are reflected in both programs. However, while using the same .SET file for WPWin and WP DOS will work, customers should consider using a different .SET file for the DOS and Windows products. Note: If customers call and describe a problem that WPCorp cannot duplicate and they are sharing .SET files, the first troubleshooting step is to recreate a new WPWin .SET file. This customer solved the problem by putting the /PS startup in the command line portion of Windows. This is done by selecting the WPWin icon, going into the File section of the Windows menu bar, then selecting Properties. In the command line section, the user can put the /PS switch, e.g., G:\APPS\WPWIN\WPWIN.EXE /PS=C:\WPC\. WP looks for the /PS environment variable options in the following order: 1. Command line 2. SET WPWIN variable 3. SET WPC variable 4. WP{WP}.ENV |
