When attempting to do a merge with wordperfect(dos) I receive an error message. The message is the following:

There is a problem with your AREV DOS Sort Path file setting.

Your DOS Sort Pathname is currently set to: C:\REVWORK

The DOS Sort Path specifies an invalid subdirectory.

The DOS Sort Pathname should specify a complete drive, and subdirectory to be used when AREV is writing temporary files.

How do I change this temporary file setting? I have a couple of new pc's that give me an "invalid DOS temp directory" error when the program is started.

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thank you,

Chris

Have you created the path/folder c:\revwork on each PC?

In order for a local drive sort path to work generically, the drive\subdirectory path must exist on each workstation. You can put a piece of code in your startup procedure that will create the directory if it doesn't exist. You can either do this from an MS-DOS batch file on the network (IF EXIST …) or from within AREV's startup (OSOPEN …).
