Sigh! The manuals were brilliant, I still have my original DataPerfect boxed set. If you followed the tutorial you ended up with a working billing system.
Oh well, back to the real world.

Hi Laurie,
As it happens I do have the original WP 5.1 in its original box with all its manuals, however, it is in the 5 1/4 floppy disk medium.
Cheers

Still hunting for WordPerfect 5.1 and the WordPerfect Office DOS desktop! Possibly the greatest text-based switching and "multitasking" environment ever built - it supported all sorts of wonderful macros that would let all my open applications talk with each other (even Paradox to WordPerfect)

Hmm, it would be interesting to see if anybody can get Napser working again, curious about where it left off and it stimulated some good discussions amongst the students last month about copyright and marketshare. Perhaps in a VM it could work ..

Hi all.
If you've ever installed a new version of a program and regretted it forever because it was broken, it had removed your favourite features, or it had turned into a bloated tub of useless lard, this site may be useful to you...

It's great when a software "upgrade" isn't what you expected.
