WP Not Deleting Virtual Files Upon Exiting |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: The virtual files created by WordPerfect were not being deleted when exiting the program. The user was running on a Novell network and starting WP from a directory named SECRETARY. Even though the files were not deleted upon exiting WP, the user could delete them manually at a DOS prompt. The directory name is longer than eight characters. Even though the user had supervisor rights to the directory, WordPerfect will not recognize the directory since it is longer than 8 characters. Changing the name of the directory to something eight characters or less will allow WP to properly delete the virtual files. Note: The presence of the overflow or virtual files can cause messages such as "Are Other Copies Of WordPerfect Running?" to appear. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option. |
