Weird menu problems since upgrade

Last night I replaced the 4.8 files with the 5.6 files (I just copied
over the FPRO/FP directory with one from the development/testing
directory) and now I'm getting two problems. 

One seems like a simple problem of FPRO not getting something right in
the programming.  When I simply enter P it tires to run DPROMENU from
the drive you are in as opposed to the one set in PFDSK.  Having
recently moved from a Netware server that is still connected, but which
doesn't have the upgraded files, I was getting the old DPROMENU when
running from the Netware drive.  When I deleted it it would complain
that it couldn't find it.  But when I ran it from the new server (a
Samba server) then it ran no problem.  I guess that it doesn't read
PFDSK as it should.

The other problem is more problematic and I haven't found what the cause
is. When users try one of the menu options on the main menu it is
supposed to call a menu called "O" with the command "P O".  But Filepro
is calling DPROMENU instead.  I haven't been able to find why this is
happening.  The original menu looks from which it is called looks fine
and it works in the development directory as well.

Does someone have any idea what is going on?


Thanks,
Boaz
