WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The error message "Dictionary File Not Found, Enter Path" displays when the user tries to spell-check a WP 5.1 (CE) file in the English-Canada (CE) version of WP 6.0. Solutions: This problem is corrected with the 02/14/94 (6.0b) release of WP 6.0 DOS.

How/Why:
WP 6.0 and WP 6.0a were not retrieving the codes from Initial Codes Setup. Because this is where the Language code is found, the files that were created in the CE version of WP 5.1 were not retrieved with their CE Language code. This causes the WP 6.0 Speller to look for a US .LEX file.

Customers can work around this problem by following these steps:
1.      Go to a DOS prompt
2.      From within the directory where the WPCE.LEX file is found, type COPY WPCE.LEX WPUS.LEX and press Enter (this will make another .LEX file with the US name on it)
3.      Chain supplemental dictionaries to both .LEX files
