[comp.sys.apple] AppleWorks compatibility question

2014_5001@uwovax.uwo.ca (08/17/89)

I posted a question a while back (which seemed to get eaten along with 4 days
worth of news at our site).  So here's my question again.  I have been using
MouseDesk as a program selector with P8 v1.4, on my hard drive.  Until recently
everything worked very nicely.  However, upon upgrading from AppleWorks 1.3 to
AppleWorks 2.0, I find that the AppleWorks quit option now crashes me into the
monitor.  I have UltraMacroWorks installed in AW, but I seem to have the
crashing problem even with a "fresh" copy under MouseDesk.  
	Among all you AppleWorks experts out there, there must be someone who
knows whats wrong.  Any ideas??  (Please E-mail replies to below address)
		
			Thanks,

>AW 2.0 crashes when used MouseDesk, when he quits from it.

You may not like this advice, but MouseDesk is a defunct product, so I suggest
you get ProSel, from Glen Bredon.  It works like a charm, and is continually
updated, so that it always works with current software.
