Word Perfect 12 Help

[myming]

hello all,

please transfer this if i am in the incorrect category - duh !

i opened my word perfect 12 program and clicked "new" document - then my cat walked
across my keyboard.

a MACRO bar appeared, but my option for FONTS/SIZES has disappeared !

how do i get my fonts/sizes option back ?

thank you !

There should be an option in Options to close the Macro Bar down.
Let us know if your still having trouble.

dear mulreay,

thank you for responding.

i got rid of the MACRO bar, but still can't retrieve my fonts...

I do not have Word Perfect right now but I think the fonts were on the "Format" toolbar.  Try enabling that toolbar.

[myming]

hi kip,

thank you for responding.

format is enabled...

[Kip]

Try this; in Word Perfect's menu bar, go to "Tools" and then "Settings".  Then click on "Customize" and go to the "Properties Bar" tab.  In the list, select "text".  The toolbar should change immediately.  Let us know if it works.

hi kip,

i followed your directions, took a screen shot, but it won't transfer to this forum.

how can i get it to you ?

[Kip]

The easiest way to post the screen shot is to attach it to the post.  To do that, click "Additional Options..." while you are on the reply page of this topic, click the "Browse" button, and browse to the file you created.  When you post the reply, the file will be at the bottom of the post.

An Error Has Occurred!
wordperfect.wpd.
You cannot upload that type of file. The only allowed extensions are doc,gif,jpg,mpg,pdf,png,txt,zip,log,bat. 

hi kip,
this is what i got when i added the attachment...

Instead of pasting the screenshot into Word Perfect, paste it into Paint (Paint can be found in the start menu under "Accessories").  When you save the file in Paint, save it as a JPG file.  Try posting that file instead.

dear kip,

this has been a problem for me for quite awhile - PAINT is NOT in accessories.

i went into "search" for paint and found many of them.
i clicked for "copy" to send a pic of them to you, but the copy/paste will not cross the threshold between word perfect to internet.

check your personal mail.

thank you.

For XP Pro
%SystemRoot%\system32\mspaint.exe

Search for mspaint on your PC.

[myming]

 mspaint.chm   shortcut
 mspaint.hlp     shortcut
 mspaint.chm   my computer
 mspaint.hlp     my computer
 mspaint.chm,  c:\i386
 chw.,exe, hlp
 mspaint.exe    c:\$NtServicePackUnin
 chn,exe,hlp
when i clicked on "mspaint.exe"(both of them) an empty box opened - i clicked "close",
got the ms warning "this program not responding" - clicked "close" got ms warning "paint has encountered a problem and needs to close".

Try copying one of the mspaint.exe files into C:\WINDOWS\System32 and running it from there.

[myming]

ok, i go into "search" and look for the "mspaint.exe" file
highlight it for copy and then what ?

thank you for doing all this !
