Garbled Words or Screen Discoloration in OS/2 Real Mode

4.00

OS/2

= SUMMARY =

When running Word with a mouse in Hercules (43-line) mode in the OS/2 Real Mode (also known as the “3.x” or “compatibility” box), the area selected by the mouse will occasionally lose its background color or be overwritten by page line and column indicators (for example, the text “Page 1 Li 200 Co 7”, which usually appears in the bottom-left corner of the Word screen).

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 4.00. This problem was corrected in Word version 5.00.
