Would anyone know how to recover from a system reset while running APPLEWORKS? Specifically for Version 1.2, but any and all version might be helpful. G.H.A.

There is a simple solution to recovering from a RESET from Appleworks.
Install *Super*MarcoWorks onto Appleworks 2.0 or later and hitting
reset will bring you back to the main menu.
Note that I have found that this works about 98% of the time.
But it has saved some lives(read mine)!

When using Super Macroworks (NOT the timeout version), about 10% of the time, reset will not bring you back tot he menu, but land you in the monitor. If this happens, try: typing '31BG' and hit return. If that doesnt work, the system has taken some major clobbering, and you probably won't get back in. (There is a long, and excruciating way of digging your way back in.. see back issues of _Open Apple_ for it) No matter which way you get in after a Reset, appleworks should be treated as 'untrustworthy' and you should save your files and reboot, ASAP. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Larry Nathanson|lan @ bucsb.UUCP :-) |The opinions in this article are not 700 Comnwlth Av.|lan @ bucsf.UUCP (-: |mine, they are those of Jimmy the Boston, MA 02215|engnyuc@bostonu.BITNET |Greek... so you can send all flaming Apt. # 1305C | |to CBS!

There's a program called RESET.SYSTEM that installs as a "pre-boot" to AppleWorks, and reconnects the reset vector (that Apple so thoughtfully left unconnected...). It's available on all major networks (GEnie, BIX, Source, etc.), or can be downloaded from the Data Library on ProLine [sol] at (619) 281-7222 (login: guest). Be aware that a minimum of 1200 bps is required for accessing the Library. The system itself will take 300 bps, though. Jerry Hewett Living Legends Software
