PROBLEMS?
========================================================================
PROBLEM: You try to print a file via JETCOL but nothing happens - the
display just returns to the VIEW screen.
POSSIBLE REASONS:
1. You don't have JETCOL!
2. You have JETCOL, but you have not left enough memory free for it to
run. Go to the configuration program VW90CFG.COM and reconfigure VIEW to
have at least 50 memory blocks reserved. You may get away with 49, you may
need 51 - experiment!
3. You have JETCOL, and you have enough memory allocated for it, but it is
not referenced in your PATH statement. Either edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
to put the drive and directory where you keep JETCOL in the path, or, from
VIEW, enter the full path when asked to enter your command line parameters.
========================================================================
PROBLEM: VIEW behaves in a strange fashion - keys don't work, or the
display is garbled.
POSSIBLE REASONS:
1. The VIEW.EXE file has become damaged. Re-install from the ZIP file.
2. You have not allocated enough memory blocks. The configuration program
allows you to go as low as 8, but that may not be enough. Try increasing
the memory allocation units reserved until VIEW works properly. The number
may depend on how much memory you have installed on your system, what TSRs
you have running, whether or not not you are running under a network, for
example. I find that allocating 12 units allows VIEW to run without
problems.
3. You have configured VIEW for fast display but you have an
incompatible video card (this is more and more unlikely unless you
have an old card, or a card in an AT&T or Olivetti machine).
Reconfigure VIEW to disable fast video.
4. You see "snow" on the screen. This means you have configured
for fast video but your video card is just not fast enough to keep
up with the display (this happens with CGA cards). Reconfigure VIEW
to disable fast video display.
