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

Problem

Symptoms: After the customer merged a WordPerfect 5.1 primary file with a WordPerfect 5.0 secondary file, some lines of text appeared flush left with only one to ten characters per line. WP had inserted a deletable soft return [DSRt] code at the end of each line. If the first [DSRt] code was deleted, the printer was reselected, or Display Pitch was changed to automatic, the document was properly reformatted. Solutions: The secondary file was not set up correctly. When you merge a WP 5.0 secondary file with a WP 5.1 primary file, the field names in the secondary file must be bold. See memo 29237C in the WP51 or WP50 infobase for information on how to bold the field names. When the secondary file was set up properly, the merge worked fine.
