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

Problem

Symptoms: The customer was working in a document when he received a password prompt. The customer exited WordPerfect without saving, and tried to pull up the old document again, but it was not there. Solutions: WP will not just delete a file. If a file is deleted intentionally (at DOS or in WP), it can be recovered by Norton Utilities, but only for a short period of time (depending on the work you are doing on the disk). If files are saved to the disk, including temporary files, in the same place as the deleted file, Norton Utilities will not be able to recover the file. The more work that is done, the less likely it is that the customer will be able to recover the file.
