In converting a 17-page, 155K MacWrite document to MS Word I seem to be
running into an insurmountable problem. After about five minutes into
the conversion process an Alert Box appears on the screen, as follows:
Session too long: insufficient space
on Word disk. Save your document
on another disk and quit.
I click OK and the first screen and part of the document appears. If I
try to advance through the document it appears that the machine is frozen.
All mouse activity is apparently ignored. Yet, if I let the machine sit,
a new line of text or graphic will appear every minute or so.
If I attempt to save the document nothing happens; no disk activity occurs
(i.e. for *hours*).
Note that the document contains *both* text and graphics (actually quite a
lot of graphics).
Anyone have any ideas?? I've converted documents in this manner before
with no problems. Is Microsoft tolerant of requests for assistance over
the phone?
