I have WP 5.0 running under VP/ix without any problems.  I have a 32MB
DOS partition on the primary drive and WP is on it.  The DOS partition
is writable by the vpix user, which is necessary if WP 5.0 is to work.
I use it frequently, although not with very complex documents.  

(I'm running an old version, 7/11/88; I have the newer version but
have never installed it.)
