- 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! ALTERNATIVELY: re-run VIEW using the /mem command
- line switch to allocate (temporarily) more memory for JETCOL/2COL.
-
- 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.
-
- ========================================================================
-
- PROBLEM: VIEW does not properly decode WinWord 6 files.
-
- REASON: I have not been able to find the necessary file structure
- information. Please see "NEWIN92A.DOC"
