1.00 1.05

MS-DOS

= SYMPTOMS =

Microsoft Works version 1.x will not let you delete the last database report while in the report definition screen. If you try to delete the last report without exiting the report first, it will change the report name to “Report1” and leave you in a blank report definition screen. If you try to view this report, the status displays as 0 percent, the report is not displayed, and you are left in the blank report definition screen.

= WORKAROUND =

To successfully delete the last report in Works 1.x, exit the report definition screen first, then delete as normal.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works versions 1.00 and 1.05. This problem was corrected in Works version 2.00.
