First, check your Shell menu item for DataPerfect (Alt-M, Enter, and select "Advanced Options"), and make sure the "Shell 3.x Compatibility" box is checked. This will cause SHL_CMP.EXE to run as necessary to provide compatibility for WP programs designed to work with Shell 3. Also, for anything but the simplest keyboard macros to work, you'll need to load MC.EXE (the macro engine) before running Shell. Your command line to start Shell should read "MC SHELL" followed by any startup options you normally use. Hope this helps!
