Works 1.x: SHIFT+ARROW on Toshiba Portable Does Not Extend

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

In Works 1.x, when you press the SHIFT key at the same time as a directional key (for example, SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW), the selection should be extended. However, on the Toshiba T1000 laptop, the highlight moves as if only a directional key has been pressed.

This problem occurs because the Toshiba BIOS does not recognize this keystroke combination, and the problem may occur with other Toshiba laptops using Works 1.x. The problem does not occur with Works 2.00.
