| 4242.1 | I prefer warm beer but was that the question | AIMTEC::WICKS_A | Atlanta's Most (In)famous Welshman | Thu Jun 09 1994 19:54 | 11 |
| Jackie,
you really need to ask Product Management this one but I think the
answer is that Keypak is the preferred converter set. If you have a
tagging problem then you should really try and figure out of there's
a workaround either by asking in the TeamlInks conference or logging
a call with the nice people at the CSC.

| 4242.2 | working with CSC, Keypak sending files | SCAMIN::BROWN | Gotta keep moving..... on. | Thu Jun 09 1994 20:28 | 10 |
| Andrew,
I have been working with the great people at the CSC - thank you Debbie
and Beth! Keypak is supposed to send some files so that they can
recognize the WPCORP handling type. They should arrive tomorrow, and I
will post my progress here and let folks know if it works.
thanks again,

| 4242.3 | KEYpak is currently preferred | IOSG::HOLTD | Dave Holt | Fri Jun 10 1994 16:54 | 12 |
| Jackie,
KEYpak are currently the preferred converters - we were hoping to bundle crucial
ones with V3.1 ALL-IN-1 but it hasn't happened, however we have included the
integration 'hooks'. The KEYpak package will be available after we ship and we
may include a bingo card with the kit so that customers can order them sharp.
We are bundling though ten CDA converters on VAX and AXP that will do some form
of job for you although WINWORD native is not amongst them.
Regards,
Dave Holt, ALL-IN-1 Product Management

Does the system have FORMAT master entries for 'WO' and 'WPCORP', and what
are they set to? If so, then the system is using two FORMAT master entries
for the same type of files.
'WO' is the Mnemonic name KEYpak uses for WordPerfect files, and if
KEYpak+1 has been installed on the system a FORMAT master entry called 'WO'
will have been created.
It's probable that setting 'WPCORP' entry to be like the 'WO' entry will
allow KEYpak to be used for 'WPCORP' documents.

| 4242.5 | tried it - still does not works | SCAMIN::BROWN | Gotta keep moving..... on. | Wed Jun 15 1994 22:45 | 11 |
| Richard,
I looked at the FORMAT masters and did just what you said - changed the WPCORP to
look just like the WO record and it still did not work. The customer should
have received the files from Keyword today (sigh) and I'm waiting on the word....
It is puzzling to me why the above did not work....
thanks,

| I'm fighting this battle as well in a very similar environment (but add
MicroSoft Word for Windows). KEYpak expects the handling of MWW but
TeamLinks tags them as WINWORD2. I am working with the KEYpak support
folks to try to resolve this issue. Apparently, there are some sort of
post-installation steps you can take with the newest version of KP1 to
make KEYpak automatically change TeamLinks' names to KEYpak's, but it
seems to need write access to shared message files (ugly). I hope we
can work out the nits. I'll post what I find out.
