- Excellent price you got. The documentation is worth far more than that

- I also bought my copy second-hand with no registration card. I
- wrote WordPerfect Corp. a letter explaining that, and they sent back a
- form for my dealer to sign transfering ownership of the package to me.
- I upgraded by calling their Amiga toll-free number 1-800-321-3204. I
- think the upgrade was $9.00, and I upgraded BEFORE receiving any forms
- They still seem to provide telephone support, even though they halted
- further development on the Amiga.

-
- I'd call them. Might cost you a few extra bucks.
