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

Problem

Solutions: Customers have reported display problems in WP after running the following third-party products:
      Ventura 2.0
      Freelance
      DOSSHELL 5.0
      Publisher's Business System
      Quattro Pro 4.0
These problems include incorrect screen colors, partially unreadable text, the inability to see bold, underline, the highlight bar, etc., and the display screen changing from monochrome mode in WP to color. Using the DOS MODE MONO command or the MODE CO80 command at DOS before entering WP or using the /MONO startup option with WP solved the problems.

The MODE MONO command changes the mode of the graphics card while the /MONO startup option only changes WP's display to monochrome. MODE MONO will affect all other applications the customer uses. In most cases MODE MONO will change the mode of the display to true monochrome, while the /MONO option only simulates the monochrome mode.
