153.0. "WPS-PLUS V4.0: Decimal tab insertion problem" by KAOFS::R_OBAS () Mon Mar 02 1992 21:12

    Hello,
        After upgrading to ALL-IN-1 V2.4 (WPS-PLUS V3.1)from ALL-IN-1 V2.3  
    the users can no longer put a DECIMAL TAB in their rulers, it's being
    replaced (the decimal) by a $ sign (old documents). The terminal just 
    beeps after they do a GOLD R then put a (.). I noticed that in ALL-IN-1 
    V2.4 with WPS-PLUS V4.0 option, I get the same problem, I cannot put a 
    decimal tab in my ruler. We still have an ALL-IN-1 V2.4 with 3.1 WPS-PLUS 
    and it works alright, I can put a decimal tab.    
      Could anyone help please.
    
    Thanks,
    ricardo

153.1	It happened to our customer YESTERDAY	TAVENG::WEISSBREM	Ittamar - Israel Engieering	`Tue Mar 03 1992 08:55`	28
	This happens when the WPLDATES_US_ENGLISH (substitute appropriate language and country codes) in WPADOC.OLB and OALLV.OLB do not match. This could happen if the appropriate file was un available during installation or OALLV object replaced later. You can rectify this performing the following (taken out of KIIMAGES.COM): $message /object /nolist /symbols /NOTEXT /object = vmi$kwd:wplmess.obj - a1$llv:wplmess, a1$llv:wplexcep, 'a1$wpldates', 'a1$wplcurr', - a1$llv:srttables, a1$llv:wplforms $lib /replace a1$build:wpadoc.olb vmi$kwd:wplmess.obj $ $message /object /nolist /symbols /TEXT /object = vmi$kwd:wplmess.obj - a1$llv:wplmess, a1$llv:wplexcep, 'a1$wpldates', 'a1$wplcurr', - a1$llv:srttables, a1$llv:wplforms $lib /replace a1$llv:oallv.olb vmi$kwd:wplmess.obj obviously you should replace: 'a1$wpldates' with appropriate WPLDATES_US_ENGLISH 'a1$wplcurr' with appropriate WPLCURR_US_ENGLISH If you have more than one language make sure all of the WPLCURR_US_xxxxx are alligned. In your case maybe your previous WPLCURR_US_ENGLISH had the wrong order or somthing along this line (i.e. check this before introducing any changes).
153.2	WPLCURR is the culprit ...	TAV02::CHAIM	Semper ubi Sub ubi .....	`Wed Mar 04 1992 06:37`	26
	As Ittamar stated in a previous reply, this happened to one of our customers the other day, and I was the support engineer who had to solve it. This was a multi lingual system which was upgraded from V2.3 to V2.4. The file which caused the problem was the WPLCURR_XX_LANGUAGE.MSG file. At some point in time (I guess between V2.3 and V2.4), the order of the messages was changed (the message for the decimal tab was moved from the first message to the last message). During the upgrade of one of the languages, evidently, the file from V2.3 which was still in the directory was used for linking the images and not the V2.4 version. This was probably due to an error in that particular language kit which did NOT contain the revised message file. Since this language was the last language to be upgraded, the oa$main.exe image reflected the V2.3 message configuration. Recompiling the message files and re-linking the images solved the problem. Thanks, Cb. Cb.
