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

Problem

Symptoms: In both WordPerfect 5.0 and WP 5.1, you can press Home-Tab to get a tab that keeps its integrity, thus it appears as a [TAB] code. From WP 5.0 to WP 5.1 a [Tab] code converts to a [TAB] code. If the user presses the tab key in WP 5.0, it puts in a [Tab] code. If the users saves the document created in WP 5.0 with tabs in it, exits WP 5.0, enters WP 5.1, and retrieves the WP 5.0 document into WP 5.1, the tabs change from [Tab] to [TAB]. Why do the tabs change? Solutions: This was done to keep the integrity of WP 5.0 files in WP 5.1. The tabs are kept from changing if you ever change your tab setting in WP 5.1. If the customer is using macros, he should adjust them to check for both hard and soft tab situations.
