5.50 6.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

The following are corrections for errors that appear in the Online Help screens for Microsoft Word version 5.50 and 6.00.

AUTOEXEC Macro
In the Help Index Definitions section, the “AUTOEXEC macro” topic states the following:

This macro must always be named AUTOEXEC.MAC.

This statement is incorrect. The autoexec macro will not run if it has a MAC extension. An autoexec macro will run when you start Word if it is stored in the NORMAL.GLY file and named AUTOEXEC (with no extension). The Help entry should read as follows:

This macro must always be named AUTOEXEC.

Mouse Help
In the Help Index Mouse section, the “Selecting text” topic states the following method to select the entire document:

Selection bar, hold down Ctrl, and click the left mouse button.

This information is correct, but you can also select the entire document by clicking both mouse buttons in the selection bar. You can use either method to select the entire document.
