README.LAN                  01/31/92
This README file lists enhancements and changes to the files on
the Office 3.1 Program diskettes.

For a complete list of enhancements, you can order the Office
Enhancement disk.  This disk lists all the program enhancements
made to Office 3.0, 3.01, and 3.1 since its initial release on
06/14/90.

Each enhancement or change is listed by program name and feature.

DOS 5.0
With the version of MS-DOS 5.0 now shipping, there are some
inaccuracies contained in a readme file.  The statement says,
"Some versions of WordPerfect Office 3.0 are incompatible with
MS-DOS 5.0.  Contact your vendor for more information." 

WordPerfect Office 3.0, 3.01, and 3.1 are compatible with MS-DOS
5.0.  Microsoft has been notified of the error in the readme file
and said it will be corrected.

CALENDAR: Startup Option
Calendar now supports the /ph-path and /pu-path startup options,
where /ph is the path to your host and /pu is the path to the
USERID.FIL.  If either option is specified without the other,
Calendar uses the same setting for both.  If neither option is
specified, it searches for the USERID.FIL and uses its location
as the host directory.

CHKOFF: Batch Mode
CHKOFF now supports the Batch mode (/b) startup option.  If the
/b option is specified, CHKOFF will not prompt you for input.  In
order for /b to work correctly, the path to the USERID.FIL must
be specified either with the Path to USERID.FIL (/pu) startup
option or in the Setup menu.

CHKOFF: Code Page
CHKOFF now supports the Multilingual code page 850.

CHKOFF: Password
CHKOFF now supports the Password (/pw-password) startup option
which allows you to enter the password from the DOS command line.

CHKOFF: Rebuild
CHKOFF now supports the option of specifying a single user or a
single resource when selecting the Rebuild (/r) option.  From the
DOS command line, you can specify a single user or resource by
using /u-host:userid, /u-userid@host, or /u-userid.  If you use
the configuration screen, you specify the user or resource on the
Single User option.  If you specify an Office User ID without a
host, CHKOFF selects the first matching Office User ID on a
delivery host.

CHKOFF: Setup Screen
A new setup screen has been added to CHKOFF that lists the
options you can run with CHKOFF.  This screen displays when you
type CHKOFF at the DOS prompt.

Directory Services: Directory Services
Directory Services (DS) is a new administration program
that enables the administrator to send user and resource lists to
and receive user and resource lists from other domains. 
Directory Services works with the Directory Service Server (DSS)
program which runs on the Connection Server and processes the
messages and lists that Directory Services sends and receives.

Directory Services:  Primary Hosts
Office configurations with numerous hosts and domains utilize
more Connection Server memory.  For this reason it is highly
advisable to configure to send to only the primary host in the
desired domain.  Although you only send to the primary host, the
lists are distributed to all delivery hosts in the domain as long
as they are configured to receive lists.

Directory Services:  NET5.COM
If you are running Novell NetWare and DOS 5.0 with Directory
Services you must use NETX.COM as your NetWare shell.  You cannot
use NET5.COM.

FILE MANAGER: Program Launch Print
Program Launch now tries to print the document from disk.  If an
error occurs, the macro then retrieves the document into
WordPerfect and prints the document from the screen.

FILE MANAGER: Startup Option
File Manager now supports the /d-%x startup option.  This option
allows multiple copies of File Manager to be run without
redirecting the temporary files.  X represents the letter or
number added to the temporary file so there is no conflict with
existing filenames.

GENDSNB: GENDSNB
GENDSNB is a new administration utility that adds domain specific
user and resource lists from other domains to the current domain
USERID.NB and RESOURCE.NB.  These user and resource lists are
generated through Directory Services (DS).

GENOFF: GENOFF.LOG
GENOFF now supports the /o startup option which lets you redirect
output of the log file to a different path and filename.  The /o
startup option requires a path and a filename for the log.  If a
filename is not specified, GENOFF will not continue.

GENOFF: Password
GENOFF now supports the Password (/pw-password) startup option 
which allows you to enter the password from the DOS command line.

INSTALL: *.LCN File
Install now reads the LCN file which contains the license number
information.  This allows you to enter that information only
once, instead of every time you update.

INSTALL: Directories
Install now allows you to specify directory paths which contain
extended characters.

MACROS: *.EDM and *.SHM
The Editor (*.EDM) and Shell (*.SHM) macros now include comments
at the top of the file.  The comments ({;}comment~) include a
description of the macro, any macros nested from the macro, and
any variables defined in the macro.

MACROS: *.EDM and *.SHM
The Editor (*.EDM) and Shell (*.SHM) macros have improved error
handling.  If a macro cannot continue, a prompt displays the
macro filename.  For example, "ERROR: PRINT.SHM cannot continue;
press any key to quit" now displays instead of "ERROR: Please
retry the macro."

MACROS: OFF_APPL.NB
Records have been added to OFF_APPL.NB to document the new Shell
macros.  Information is available for the PRIMARY.SHM macro.  For
Mail's External Editor, information has been added about
XE{ED}.SHM, XE{LP}.SHM, XE{WP}.SHM, and XEWP50.SHM.

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
PRIMARY.SHM has been added to the Office predefined macros.  When
you execute PRINT.SHM and select Additional Formats, PRIMARY.SHM
is used to select/create the formats and durations you want to
have available.  The Options menu lets you select your printer,
fonts, and 5 or 7 days in the calendar week.  PRIMARY.SHM then
uses the new ALL_*.SEC files to create the primary files (*.PRI).

These *.PRI files are used by PRINT.SHM to print the calendar
printouts in WordPerfect.

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
The "V - Version" option on the WordPerfect Printing menu has
been removed from PRINT.SHM (WordPerfect 5.1 is the default
version).  If the Office Supplemental Macro Disk is installed,
the "V - Version" option displays.  You can then select the
WordPerfect 5.0 or LetterPerfect formats contained on the
Supplemental Disk.

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
The PRINT.SHM "Year Calendar" format for Calendar and Scheduler
has been moved from the Office Supplemental Macro disk to the
Office disks.  Now the Office disks include all durations and
formats for WordPerfect 5.1.  (The Supplemental disk package
includes all available durations and formats for WordPerfect 5.0
and LetterPerfect.)

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
The Print Format and Additional Format menus in PRINT.SHM now
display a "Page Size" heading.  All formats print on 8 1/2" x 11"
paper; a Page Size smaller than 8 1/2" x 11" can be cut to the
desired size after it prints.

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
WordPerfect now displays a document comment on page one of each
format (*.PRI primary file).  The comment states that the primary
merge file is used by PRINT.SHM and specifies the duration and
the format type.

MACROS: PRINT.SHM
Nine new 8 1/2 x 11 formats can now be used by PRINT.SHM.  Seven
formats create a portrait table with a 10cpi fixed pitch font
(especially useful if your printer does not have proportional
space fonts).  The Day format adds an Organizer format; the Month
and Week formats add a Calendar and an Organizer format; the Six
Week format adds a Calendar format; and the Year format adds an
Organizer format.  Two additional formats have been added to
print from Scheduler only.  The two Schedule formats are Day
(portrait) and Week (landscape) with proportional space fonts.

MACROS: SPELL.SHM
SPELL.SHM now checks the spelling in DataPerfect and PlanPerfect.

Before the macro is started, DataPerfect must be in a text field
and PlanPerfect must be in a text edit window.

MAIL: Attached Files
From the Read screen, when you move the cursor to certain
attached WordPerfect Corporation files, a message is displayed
that tells you what type of file is currently highlighted.  Files
that display the file type are: WordPerfect macros, Editor
macros, Shell macros, DataPerfect macros, PlanPerfect macros,
PlanPerfect spreadsheets, Calendar files, DrawPerfect files, and
DOS executable files (e.g., DUCK.WPG displays "DrawPerfect
Graphics File").

MAIL: Date Formats
Mail now supports the dollar sign ($) character as a leading
space character in date and time formats.

MAIL: Encryption
Mail now encrypts the entire message file in all mail messages.

MAIL: Folders
Mail now has the Folders feature which allows you to file
envelopes in various user defined folders in both your In and Out
boxes.  Folders can be defined as either System or Archive
folders.  System folders keep envelopes on the network.  Archive
folders allow you to keep envelopes in a personal directory
either on your hard drive or on a personal network directory.

MAIL: List Hosts
The List Hosts screen in Mail now includes a Find User (2)
option.  Find User searches through the user lists under each
host and finds each occurrence of a specified text string and
then displays only those hosts which contain that string.  When
one of those hosts is selected by pressing Enter, the list is
positioned on the first occurrence of the text string.

MAIL: List Users
The List Users (F5,2) screen in Mail now has the Search (F2) and
Reverse Search (Shift-F2) options which allow you to search for
an item by entering a word or string of text.  This is also
available from List Hosts, Users (F5,6,1).

MAIL: Program Launch
Mail now has a Program Launch feature (Alt-F7) which allows you
to use an external editor to create a mail message.  You can also
use non-WordPerfect Corporation programs to view or print
messages.  This includes an additional option, Launch Program to
Print, which has been added to the Print screen (Shift-F7).

MAIL: Send Options
The Mail Server (MLS) now scans through the messages that are
waiting to be processed and sorts them so that the highest
priority messages are processed first.

MAIL: Spell
Mail now displays Spell (Ctrl-F2) on the Mail Message screen. 
This option starts the SPELL.SHM macro and is only available when
WordPerfect is included on the Office Shell menu.

MAIL: Startup Option
Mail now supports the /ph-path and /pu-path startup options,
where /ph is the path to your host and /pu is the path to the
USERID.FIL, file.  If either option is specified without the
other, Mail uses the same setting for both.  If neither option is
specified, it searches for the USERID.FIL file and uses its path.

MAIL: Startup Option
Mail now supports the /sf startup option.  The /sf-filename
option starts Mail on the Send screen with the specified file
attached.  You can then fill in the remaining fields and send the
message/file.  When you exit (or cancel from) the Send screen,
you are exited from Mail.

MLSETUP: Password
MLSETUP.EXE is a system administration utility that allows the
system administrator to change setup options for a user.  It can
be used to set a password for a Remote Mail user or to make other
changes to Mail setup options.

NOTIFY: Clear
Notification messages now display the additional message
"Ctrl-Alt-Enter to clear all"  which clears all notification
messages at once.

OFFADMIN: CHKOFF.MNU and OFFNB.MNU
Now each menu item from CHKOFF.MNU starts CHKOFF with various
startup options without using Shell macros.  The "View Last
GENOFF Log" option on the OFFNB.MNU menu now starts the Editor
program from the menu item itself.

SCHEDULER: Scheduler and Calendar Communication
Scheduler and Scheduler Server (SCS) now displays the user name
of the person whose calendar information is currently being
processed (e.g., Processing Calendar Information for: JOHNC).

SCHEDULER: Search
From the main Scheduler screen, Search (F2) and Reverse Search
(Shift-F2) allows you to search the Request For or Organized By
box.

SCHEDULER: Startup Option
Scheduler now supports the /ph-path and /pu-path startup options,
where /ph is the path to your host, and /pu is the path to the
USERID.FIL file.  If either option is specified without the
other, Scheduler uses the same setting for both.  If neither
option is specified, Scheduler searches for the USERID.FIL file
and uses its location as the host directory.

SHELL: Startup Options
The Shell default work space increased to 6K of memory.  The
minimum work space increased to 3K (/w-3) and the maximum
increased to 32K (w/-32).

WPOPTR: Macros
WPOPTR now supports the international interface.  Yes = "+" and
No = "-."
