I've discovered a problem with Wordperfect 8. It gives the error
"An error occurred opening the file" when trying to open a file
(text, RTF, Word 2/95/97) residing on a FAT partition.
If I copy the same file to a UFS (or NTFS for that matter) partition
it opens it fine.
My FAT partition is owned by the user trying to open the file and
all the files have 777 perms.
Has anyone else seen this problem and, if so, do you know haw to
fix it?
