When using a Mouse menu with WordPerfect Version 5.00, the menu
opens; however, no text appears at the current cursor location when a
selection is made. Upon exiting WordPerfect, the characters from the
menu appear at the DOS command prompt.
   WordPerfect Version 5.00 has keyboard macros that disable the Mouse
menu while in WordPerfect. To use a Mouse menu with WordPerfect
Version 5.00, you must start WordPerfect with the /nk switch. This
will disable the keyboard macros and allow the Mouse menu to function
normally.
