The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.1 for DOS
Problem
Trying to start Quattro Pro after installing to run from CD gives the error "Invalid directory" pauses a couple of seconds, clears the screen then gives the error "Cannot open resource library Press any key to continue |
Answer:
Removing the back slash from the end of the line, CD C:\COREL\QP56CD\, in the Q.BAT file in the COREL directory on the hard drive corrected the problem. |
Details:
The trailing back slash makes the Change Directory an invalid dos command. In WINDOWS 95 if you go to the DOS Prompt using the MS-DOS Prompt shortcut on the programs menu, change to the COREL directory, and run the Q.BAT batch file Quattro Pro will start. If you click the START button SHUTDOWN and select "Restart computer in MS-DOS mode?", change to the COREL directory and run the Q.BAT file the batch file will not run properly if the back slash has not been removed. |
