Not long ago I purchased a copy of WordPerfect 4.1.x for the Amiga. I like it a lot. But, when I eventually tried to use the Preview feature, which is a sub-program, as is Print, it didn't work. Instead, the whole shebang freezes. Does anyone know whether a functioning version of Preview was ever distributed?

Peter, Are you using 3.1? I found the preview freezes under 3.1 on my machine. Anyone else have this problem? Dege Pop quiz: Two biggest crooks in modern history? (o\_/o) Answer: Gould & Ali {-I-}

No, I'm not using 3.1. Don't have it. I've tried Preview on OS 1.3 and 2.1. Does your Preview work on anything? Is it Preview 1.0?

Where did you get your Word Perfect? I am using WP 4.1 for more than 4 years but I have never heard of a preview function. It is not described in the handbook. Michael Nicolaisen (Intel outside) Greetings from Germany

I bought wordPerfect 4.1.11 when it first came out. The Preview function never worked, and 4.1.11 was the last Amiga Version made. I still use it everyday and I have 3.1 OS on my Amiga 2000. Still works like a charm. !Que Viva La Amiga!

>…and 4.1.11 was the last Amiga Version made. Not true! The last version of WordPerfect for Amiga was 4.1.12 dated January 15, 1991. Someone here had left a message within the last week explaining how to get the Preview to work but I don't remember how. Perhaps (s)he will see this and repost the message for you? //daniel \X/ AP 1.80
