WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: After users upgraded from PCSA 3.0 to 4.0 (Pathworks) there were many problems with WordPerfect. The .SET files didn't seem to be holding the settings, and the supervisor received the message "Error: Invalid Filename" when entering WordPerfect. Also files were not saving correctly. The problems occurred with all releases of WP. Solutions: This problem surfaced after the users updated from DEC PCSA 3.1 to DEC Pathworks 4.0. The users were required to shut the FILE SERVICE CACHE off. This is done on the VAX side (or at the file server). Evidently the CACHE was not allowing the users to open, read and write files correctly. By doing this WP once again ran error free.
