WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: This customer has a macro that he uses quite a bit. He created it on the 11-6-89 release of WP 5.1 and used it successfully on both that release and the 1-19-90 date. What the macro does is this... He has a document created. He is down, maybe on page 2 somewhere and does a backward search for a particular word. WP Finds the word. Then, using the left arrow key (not home, left arrow) he goes to the beginning of the line. Then he presses Ctrl-End, to clear the line to the end, and presses delete to bring the next line up. Then he presses Ctrl-Home twice which should bring him back to the position that he was at before the backward-search, but is doesn't work properly. He always gets either one line above, below, or in the wrong place on the line he started at. It will not duplicate if you do a forward search. Solutions: There is no "marker" placed before a Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-Home. Therefore, when characters are added or deleted the Goto returns to the wrong position. For example: after a backward search, if the user had only deleted one character, the Goto would be one character off its proper position to the right. If two character were deleted, then the position would be two positions off, and so on. |
