thaks! I did get it installed with alot of help from Janina. DBASE runs well, WordPerfect does not and I need to look at seeing if I can put some parameters int the config.sys file. I does the job I want with respect to certain items and I am very happy I spent all that tiime. Too bad there is not a reliable rpm on this.
