    WPPARG1 command problem
    
    
    (I am working with Bob Halsey who is on-site and without connection
    to the net)
    
    
    On the wpparg1 form (P ,next screen.), the commands ss,rs,fr,to
    do not work, giving a result "Invalid choice - re-enter".
    
    The customer gets the same results with a no development and no
    customization environment.  A trace of the nonworking system and
    a working system give the same result, from command entry up to
    the point where the form is actually called.
    
    Explicit interactive command entry "does" work.
    eg. <form .arg/begin=to_fld
    
    the command symbols (oa$wpl_mo_***) appear to be defined correctly.
    
    The problem "seems" to have started around the time of the WPSPLUS V4.0
    installation.
    
    VAX 6610,  VMS V5.5, ALL-IN-1 2.4, K603, WPSPLUS V4.0.
    
    
    Any ideas?
    
    Thanks,
     Tim
                                               

    Tim,
    
    What perchance is in OASYMMSG.MAR and did the customer relink with
    the new v4.0 stuff in it... and do all the other post-install tasks
    
    Go to OA$BUILD_SHARE relink and wait for those messages to appear.
    
    Regards,

    Thanks Tim, you really did take me literally!
    
    The solution was not nearly as drastic as re-linking.  I recompiled the
    OAFORM.FLB, and the problem went away!
    
    I don't recall any errors during the WPSPlus V4.0 install.
