This is extremely unusual > because the old WordStar (v.3.33) worked perfectly. Why don't you give us a hint about what's troubling you instead of just the flames ? Some suggestions: Are you running v1.6 or 2.0 or the StarCard CP/M implementation ? v2.0 is much nicer and might help you out, and it's still available from PCPI ~$40. Try 'genning up the software 70-column mode and see if that works. The new WS might hate your 80-column card. If that works we can address the 80-column card problem next. You've got a supported product now - have you called MicroPro yet ? You won't be alone because they sold oodles of those things... Have you INSTALLed the WS yet ? Last time you bought it it came ready-to-go... rcs
