WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: A customer would receive the error "Can't Find COMMAND.COM" shelling or exiting from WordPerfect. The problem was caused by the following SET command: SET COMSPEC=C:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:1024. The switches /P and /E are not valid switches in the SET COMSPEC command. These two switches are only used in the CONFIG.SYS file with a shell or command statement. An example of this would be SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:1024.
