[mod.computers.vax] INFO-VAX HELP REQUEST

ROEBUCK@SASK.BITNET.UUCP (12/12/86)

We are trying to transfer WORD-11 text in format from a 86xx cluster to
WPS+/ALLIN1 Ver. 2.1 on a microvaxII.  There is a 'decmate' text conversion
routine in WORD-11 which enables us to get the text to a DECmate, then DX text
to ALLIN1.  (You can not go directly from WORD-11 to WPS+ as the 'dx' files
created by WORD-11 (ver. 3.1 or ver 4.0) are not 100% compatible with DECdx,
and some text, not just format info, can be lost.)  Anyway, on certain
documents, the conversion from DX to WPS+, using the transfer facilities of
ALLIN1, causes the wps editor and allin1 to crash, and displays the messages...

        %KOA-F-UNHKOAEXC Unhandled KOALA exception MEMORY_LIMIT
        - KOA-F-EXCTRAHDR, Active exception traceback follows

        $
        (ie, nothing follows but a return to DCL).

I can not seem to find any reference to these error messages, nor can I
duplicate the occurrence with any test file.  Any suggestions, leads or cosmic
insights would be gratefully received.
