Hi folks:

I have recently acquired a Perfect View VGA card (with 1 MB of memory) to drive 
my Viewsonic 4 monitor (1024 x 768 interlaced).  The manual suggests that I can 
display WordPerfect 5.0 in 800 x 600, 16 color or 1024 x 768, 16 color
resolutions for page previews if I copy the two *.WPD files that they have
supplied into the /WP5 subdirectory (and then proceed with Shift F1, setup
within Word Perfect.

The problem is that I am using WP5.1 (amd not WP5.0).  It seem that WP5.1 does
not use *.WPD files as graphics drivers.  From what I have seen, it seems that
WP5.1 utilizes *.VRS files instead.
 
Does any one have a *.VRS file for the Perfect View card?  Can you tell me
where I can get hold of one?  The manual does not list any address or telephone
number.  Do you know how I can contact the makers of View Perfect?  Could Word
Perfect Corporation, by some stroke of luck, provide the graphics driver?
 
Any suggestion or recommendation will be appreciated very much.
 
Regards,     - Jhinuk.
