WordPerfect under VP/ix won't work for me

Forgive me if this is something painfully obvious.  I am new to Xenix.

I am running VP/ix 1.01.01 under SCO 2.3.3 (on an HP RS/25c), with a 
32 M DOS partition and 120 M Xenix partition.  Sometimes I try to
run WordPerfect 5.0 on top of VP/ix.  Can anyone suggest why WP 
will not run from the Xenix file system ("Replace disk in drive and 
press any key") whilst it runs OK through VP/ix from the DOS partition?
It seems it cannot find WP.FIL.  I've tried the obvious things, but 
don't let that stop you making any suggestion that occurs to you.

Please send email, I'll post the answer when it arrives.  Thank you.

Martyn

PS.  Congrats to SCO for getting the 1.01.01 to me so fast.  I sent
them an email message asking for the upgrade, and it was FedEx'ed
way up here right away.  Well done guys.
