Microsoft Windows NT, Beta March 1993
Patch for WordPerfect 5.2 Printing Problem


The Microsoft Windows NT product group has recently identified a printing 
problem with the March Beta release of Windows NT.  If you have installed 
the March Beta release you may encounter problems printing from 
WordPerfect 5.2.  Although the application appears to recognize that the 
job is printing, the print spooler will receive a job of 0 bytes and no 
output will be printed.  

If you encounter this problem, please take the following steps to remedy 
this behavior.  We appreciate your efforts in reporting problem areas and 
encourage you to continue working with us to improve the product. We 
apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

To retrieve the corrected files from the WINNT CompuServe forum:

    Connect to the WINNT CompuServe forum, Library 2 where you will find 
    WNT007.ZIP.  This file was created using the PKZIP file compression 
    utility.  You will need the PKUNZIP utility to extract the files to
    a directory on your hard drive.  PKUNZIP can be found as PKZ110.EXE 
    in Library 2 of the IBMCOM forum.  Download PKZ110.EXE and execute 
    the file to extract the PKUNZIP.EXE utility.  Create a directory on
    your hard disk where the extracted files can be placed.  For example, 
    C:\WNT007.  To extract the WNT007.ZIP file, type: 
	PKUNZIP WNT007.ZIP C:\WNT007
    to decompress the files into the directory.  The following files can 
    now be seen:

	KRNL286.EXE
	KRNL386.EXE
	README.TXT

Instructions to resolve the problem behavior:


1.      Logon to Windows NT.  

2.       Execute the MS-DOS Command Prompt from the Program Manager.  
Locate KRNL386.EXE for x86-based installations and KRNL286.EXE for 
RISC-based installations on your hard drive in the Windows NT system path. 
For example, CD \WIN31\SYSTEM32 or change directories to the appropriate
system directory for your Windows NT installation.  

3.	Insert the floppy patch disk into the floppy disk drive and copy 
the new file from the patch disk to the proper Windows NT system path 
location of your Windows NT installation to replace the failing file.  
For x86-based installations for example, at the command line type, 
COPY A:KRNL386.EXE C:\WIN31\SYSTEM32.   For RISC-based installations, 
replace KRNL286.EXE.  

4.      Exit Program Manager and Shutdown from Windows NT by pressing 
CTRL-ALT-DEL, and select Shutdown, then OK.  You may now log back on and 
proceed as normal.
