I have WP51, April or some such '91 version. This weekend I was doing a backup
of my harddrive, via Norton NBackup program, when I got a meeesgae from NBACKUP
that a file WPLM.EXE wasn't readable. I finished the backup and then went back
to look at the file. I cant read it --- get an abort/retry error message. Must
be a bad sector on my disk. Anyway, I called WPCorp this AM to ask what this
file is, and the guy I talked to said he didn't know, that it wsn't listed in
his files. He said it sounded like some kind of printer file or some such.
My WP51 runs just fine, but I'm curious about what this file is. Does anyone ou
t there know what a WPLM.EXE file is?
Thanks, BobM >AthensGA/out of Pennn State
