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

Problem

Pressing the F1 function key types "C3-4" (minus the quotes) to the screen.

Answer:

After re-booting the machine the problem no longer occurs.

Details:

The customer has a program call PRD that runs in the background (a TSR). It expands characters and acronyms to full words, much like the QuickCorrect feature in can do in WPWIN61 and WPWIN70. The user explained that when "C34" is typed, the PRD program expands it to "C3-4". Apparently the PRD TSR got hung up in memory somehow and affected the users F1 key.

Other trouble shooting steps included:
--Exiting and restarting WordPerfect.
--Selecting the Original keyboard (Shft F1, 5, 6) in WordPerfect Setup.
