1. Installation Issues
----------------------
When installing Corel Quattro Pro on a workstation, IDAPI.CFG is
not installed to workstations; it remains in the \COREL\OFFICE7
server directory and is read-only. To install the file,
the network administrator can remove the read-only attribute
from the file, copy the file to each workstation, then have the
workstation user set the Paradox NET DIR setting using the
IDAPI Configuration Utility.
2. Using Existing IDAPI Settings
--------------------------------
To incorporate your existing IDAPI aliases into the 32-bit
version of IDAPI used by Corel Quattro Pro, use the IDAPI
Configuration Utility to merge the existing IDAPI.CFG file
with the new 32 bit IDAPI.CFG file. See section 1 of this file
for more information on installing IDAPI.CFG during a network
installation.
3. Corel Quattro Pro Documentation
----------------------------------
The complete Corel Quattro Pro User's Guide is available as an
Envoy document on your Corel WordPerfect Suite CD-ROM.
Open the file \COREL\OFFICE7\SHARED\HELP7\QP7US.EVY.
4. Using Corel Quattro Pro Demos
--------------------------------
When viewing Corel Quattro Pro Demos, use a 256-color display
driver in Windows 95 for best results.
5. PerfectScript Conversions
----------------------------
If you are converting Corel Quattro Pro macros to PerfectScript
macros, the following Corel Quattro Pro macro commands must be
replaced by the corresponding PerfectScript commands:
Corel Quattro Pro PerfectScript
-----------------------------------------
{ABS} AbsoluteReference()
{ASSIGN} AssignValue()
6. Dialog Designer
------------------
There are three new dialog controls in Corel Quattro Pro 7
that are not handled by older 6.x versions. If you use the
Tab control in Corel Quattro Pro 7 and save the file as a
version 6.x file (.WB2), the file will not load into Corel
Quattro Pro 6.x. The Color and File Selection controls if
saved to a version 6.x file will load into Corel Quattro
Pro 6.x but the controls will not appear on the dialogs.
7. Add-ons from Village Software
--------------------------------
Village Software(R) provides a full line of quality add-ons for
Corel Quattro Pro and Corel WordPerfect Suite. These products
perform a variety of business and financial tasks, and may fit
your needs well if you are looking to get more value out of your
new suite.
Village's FastAnswer(R) line of Quattro add-ons has won dozens
of industry awards. This line of professional-level decision-
support tools includes:
Fast-Cast for Ventures (financial projections, US$69.95)
Ratio Evaluator (financial ratio analyzer, US$69.95)
Lease vs. Purchase (investment decision support, US$69.95)
Net Worth Builder (personal net worth calculator, US$69.95)
All these FastAnswers go considerably more "in-depth" than

more FastAnswers. Call 1-800-724-9332 and mention discount
code Q35C4. Prices may vary after 3/31/97.
