TITLE:      Button Bar Replaced by Gray Shaded Area
PRODUCT:    WordPerfect 5.1/5.2 for Windows


Problem
A gray, shaded area displays on your screen in place of the
Button Bar.


Concept
Displaying the Button Bar consumes computer memory, so in order
to display a Button Bar, you must have enough memory available. 
When you select View Button Bar, WordPerfect for Windows uses the
BARNAME=PATH\FILENAME.WWB command in the WPWP.INI or WPWP###.INI
file (### represents network user initials) to determine which
Button Bar to display.  A BARNAME command must exist to display a
Button Bar.  WordPerfect for Windows retrieves Button Bar (.WWB)
files from the directory you specify Under Preferences in
Location of Files.  A Button Bar can only be retrieved if a .WWB
file exists in the specified directory.


Solutions
You first need to verify that the correct directory is specified
in Location of Files.

1     Select Location of Files from the Preferences menu.

2     Verify that the Button Bar directory is correct.


If the cause is not enough memory:

           Close other applications before you open WordPerfect
            for Windows.
           Minimize Windows program groups.


If the cause is the WPWP.INI file:

           Place a BARNAME=PATH\FILENAME.WWB command in the
            WPWP.INI or WPWP###.INI file.


Create buttons if the Button Bar (.WWB) file size is
approximately 530k.

1     Choose Button Bar Setup from the View menu, then choose
      Edit.

2     Select the options you want to display as buttons on the
      Button Bar.

3     Choose OK.
