MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

The steps to load a glossary are listed on Page 369 of the “Using Microsoft Word” manual. The following statement appears after the third step:

If you type a glossary name that doesn’t exist in the current directory, Word displays a message telling you to enter Y to create the glossary. If you press Y, Word creates the glossary. If you decide not to create a glossary, press ESCAPE.

This paragraph is incorrect. If you type a glossary name that doesn’t exist, Word returns the error message:

File or directory does not exist

Check the glossary name and retype it or use F1 to select from the list when in Transfer Glossary Load.

= MORE INFORMATION =

To create a new glossary file, perform the following steps:


 * 1) Clear the current glossary using the Transfer Glossary Clear command (this will not affect the glossary as saved on the disk).
 * 2) Create a glossary entry and copy it to the glossary.
 * 3) Create the new glossary using the Transfer Glossary Save command, type the new glossary name, and press ENTER.
