Environment: WordPerfect 9.0.0.896
Windows XP Professional SP 3
When I try to use the following macro commands:
PrefLocationOfDocuments or
PrefLocationOfMacroFiles

I get a ‘Parameter error’ message, regardless of the parameters specified. The parameter in error is not indicated. Is there something special about these commands, something that I should know?

Those commands are in the old style, where each command includes a set of brackets and options. I’ve had reliable results by ignoring them. Instead, go to the WordPerfect Macro Help file, and browse through the section of “Current WordPerfect System Variables”. I think you’ll use “?PathDocument” and “?PathMacros”, but there are also options for the supplemental folders for each of those settings.

These system variables are easy to use without parameters; this sample works in my code, to assign the current Graphics path to a variable named GPath:

GPath:=?PathGraphics

From the Corel description:

Hot Fix 2 resolves three issues and provides one enhancement.
Resolved issues:
* Copying and pasting unformatted text in tables no longer causes corruption.
* The File | Save As dialog box now uses the folder of the originating document as the default folder.
* The File | Publish to PDF dialog box now uses the folder of the originating document as the default folder.

Enhancement:
* When publishing to the PDF/A format, you can now include hyperlinks.

Download screen– From inside WordPerfect, choose Help, Check for Updates…
Click the message to see the description, and to install the Hot Fix.
Some users will need the installation CDs to install the service pack.
The current version number of WordPerfect will increase from 14.0.0.755 (SP2) to 14.0.0.756 after installation.

More information here:
http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/us/en/Content/1157481830100?pid=1252951619505

How to tell if you’ve already got SP2:

Check in Help, About WordPerfect… for the version number. It’s on the top line, just below the big logo box.
For WordPerfect, Quattro Pro, and Presentations, the version number for SP2 is 14.0.0.755. For Paradox, it’s 11.0.0.663.

I am having problems with WP and Office 2007 in Vista Buisness. So I was going to uninstall all programs and start over. When I try to do the Contol Panel uninstall, at about 65% I get the following message.

Error 1606 Could not access network location < o~ E Sign sign exp 4. Each time I get a different variant of this message with different characters being displayed.

The same message occurs when I try to restore the program.

In each case the activity is aborted.

So now I am stymied.

Here is some information in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

And more over at Installshield:
http://consumerdocs.installshield.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=Q110724&sliceId=1

Both point to registry settings being wrong.
