I upgraded to WordPerfect 5.1 on my Rainbow a short while ago, and I
just got  around to RTFM.

I found that there is now a switch /ss that lets you set your screen
size.  Tried it under CB and discovered that it doesn't work
with the CB/V switch,  but you can use CB without any switches
(i.e., CB WP51/ss=24,80) and you will  get a 24 line display.

It also works with CB/C, if you want a more colorful screen (even with
the  VR201 monochrome monitor); however, I haven't been able to
get the View  Document operation to work at all.

I have 2 pc100b memory extension cards for the rainbow if anybody wants
them for the grand total of $0.00. There are no ram chips
installed but I do have 36 41256-80 chips that I would like to
sell for $1.49 each.  If interested, call me at 508 460 1643.

   Frank, have you run Setup and specified a text-only as your
graphics screen type?
