WordPerfect Always Prompts for Net Login ID in Windows 95

Last reviewed: May 8, 1996
Article ID: Q124046
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS

When you perform a WordPerfect 6.0a or 6.1 network workstation setup, you are presented with a dialog box prompting you to enter the Network Login ID. Entering the Network Login password allows setup to be completed. Each subsequent attempt to start WordPerfect results in the same behavior. The Network Login password must be entered each time you start WordPerfect, even though you are already logged on to the network.

CAUSE

WordPerfect 6.0a or 6.1 cannot determine the "USER ID" using the standard Windows application programming interface (API).

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior you must add a setting to a WordPerfect ENV file. For information on the steps to perform, please contact WordPerfect product support.
