A couple of WordPerfect questions:

1.  I'm trying to determine the internal format codes used by
WordPerfect 5.0.  Does anyone know this information or where it can
be found?  I'll use the trial-and-error approach if I have to, but
would prefer to not fight that battle unless forced.

2.  Is there a way to get WordPerfect to run a particular DOS program
directly?  I'm setting a system up for novice users, and would like to
allow them to get out of WordPerfect to run other programs, but would
rather not show them bare DOS.  I have looked at WordPerfect Library,
but for various reasons that is not an acceptable alternative in this
case.  Any other tricks to offer???

thanks...
