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

Problem

Symptoms: Several users on a Novell network were experiencing problems when they exited WordPerfect. Their computers would either lock or reboot upon exiting. Solutions: The /NE and /D switches had been included in the environment file (WP{WP}.ENV). Since only the /NT and /PS switches should be used in this file, removing /NE and /D corrected the lock/reboot problem. The WP{WP}.ENV file will only recognize two startup switches: /NT=[network number] /PS=[drive/directory] Any other switches must be executed on a DOS command line, in a batch file, or on a menu startup option line. Having the /NE switch in the environment file (/PS-x:\WP51\SETUP/NE) can also cause the computer to lock when the Tab key is pressed in WP. Removing the switch will eliminate the locking. See Pages 997-998 in Appendix R of the WordPerfect Manual for additional information.
