Terry:
Thanks. I musta fumbled to the wrong menu. I will take three demerits.

Now I am in the right General Menu. The two checkboxes referring to
WordPerfect are there but perfectly blank.
Arghh.
Roger

Open Word: go to Tools, Options, and select the GENERAL TAB. Do you not
see
two WordPerfect options listed? Yes you do. Uncheck them.
