1    WP OFFICE 4.0a SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY NOTICE
=================================================================

                                 IMPORTANT

If you have an existing WP Office 4.0 system, please read the
following:

Software Compatibility Notice
     This software is version 4.0a.  To enhance WP Office
     database security, a change was made to the WP Office
     software.  A result of this change is that version 4.0a is
     incompatible with version 4.0.

     When updating to version 4.0a, you must update all
     administration and client software.  For example, if you
     update the DOS client software to version 4.0a, you must
     also update the administration, Macintosh client, and
     Windows client software to version 4.0a.  If you use the
     message server and gateways, you must also update the
     message server and gateway software to version 4.0a.

     When you use WP Office 4.0a, the 4.0 databases are
     automatically updated to 4.0a databases.  There is no loss
     of data when you update your system to WP Office 4.0a.

A Note About Multiple-Domain Systems
     Different domains can run different software versions.  For
     example, one domain can run version 4.0; another domain can
     run version 4.0a.

=================================================================
2    ENHANCEMENTS ADDED TO WP OFFICE 4.0a DOS REMOTE
=================================================================

COMPRESSION
=========================
Message compression has been added to speed up downloading and
uploading.

WORKSPACE STARTUP OPTION
=========================
Enhancement:  The startup option /w-workspace now allows changing
or limiting the amount of workspace used in extended, expanded,
and conventional memory.

REQUEST USER LIST
=========================
Enhancement: To request the entire user list, the user had to
clear all the fields.  The All option has been added to simplify
this task.

BACKSPACE = DELETE
=========================
Enhancement: The Backspace key now works as a delete key in the
phone list screen.

UPDATE DATABASES
=========================
Enhancement: WP Remote Office now updates any key files that have
more recent dates then the ones found in the WP Remote Office
data directory.  WP Remote Office now searches for these files in
the program directory.

PROCESSING USER LIST
=========================
Enhancement: The amount of time needed to process the user list
has been reduced by about 30% to 40%.

=================================================================
3    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT WP OFFICE 4.0a DOS REMOTE
=================================================================

@*?
=========================
These characters are displayed in the Connections Controls log
window and are synchronization characters.  You may see multiple
@*?, which indicates the modems are trying to synchronize.  Once
the modems have synchronized, logging displays will continue. 
(If you never synchronize with the other modem, lower your baud
rate and try again.  If you still have problems, contact your
system administrator.)

AUTO-DATE
=========================
When deleting or accepting auto-dates, if you choose the option
All Instances, Remote only accepts or deletes the instances that
you have downloaded.  (If you want to download all instances,
change the Date Range in your filters.)

CAS MANAGER
=========================
If you are loading a CAS Manager, it cannot be resident when
using WP Office 4.0a DOS Remote.  The CAS Manager will need to be
the last TSR loaded, then you can use the /u startup option to
unload it prior to using WP Office 4.0a DOS Remote.

CLEANING UP
=========================
Enter Setup, select the user ID, then press Enter.  A prompt
warns you that items will be lost.  Select OK to delete all your
items from your mailbox.

F7
=========================
In the Connection Control screen, when using Direct Connect you
can choose Close, press Enter, or select File and Exit from the
main menu.  You cannot press F7.

INITIALS
=========================
While you are in WP Office 4.0a DOS Remote, your initials are
$$$.

MOUSE
=========================
When you are dialing, you might notice that your mouse does not
move as smoothly as it normally does.

Also if you are running stacks, it cannot be set to 0,0, for
example, STACKS=0,0.  We recommend that you set your stacks to
the default of 9,128.  This is only when using WP Office 4.0a DOS
Remote with a mouse.

PERCENTAGE PROCESS
=========================
The percentage bar shown during the response process in the 
Connection Control dialog box is only an approximation of the 
completion of the operation.

REBUILD
=========================
If needed, your system administrator has the utilities required
to do a rebuild on your remote and master mailbox.  You would
want to rebuild your mailbox only if you were having continuous
problems. 

RULES
=========================
Rules with "New Item" as the event are not activated by
downloading.

STARTUP OPTIONS
=========================
/ps-path  
Typing /ps-c: uses the root directory C:\.  You must specify the
complete directory path if you want the current directory.

=================================================================
4    REMOTE OFFICE ERROR MESSAGES
=================================================================

"Not all responses received"
     Indicates that you still have request(s) for which you have
     not received responses.  You can go into Queue Control to
     view a list of the outstanding requests.  If for some reason
     a response gets dropped, you may need to delete it from the
     queue control manually.

"Message Synchronization Error"
     Occurs when using a direct connection.  Indicates that
     the sending and receiving side disagree on which responses
     should be sent next.  This may indicate that one or more
     messages were lost.
