We are having the following problem with WriteNow on our SE: The program has worked just fine on the computer for over 2 years. Now, however, any attempt to launch the app using either its icon or a document icon produces this alert: Out of memory! Your last change will be undone and all open documents will be saved before exiting. And you are forced to shell out with the OK button. This all occurs before any menu bar appears. This happens with any copy of WriteNow that is installed on this particular machine, including versions 1.2 and 2.0. System configuration: SE with 1Mb RAM, 20Meg Apple HD, no accelerator boards. Multifinder not in use, problem occurs with all INITs turned off. 'About the Finder' reports ~256k for System, ~729k allocated to Finder. Other applications on the disk appear to be unaffected. Disinfectant 2.0 reports no known viruses. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Manny Esguerra Sarah Pallas

Since this posting I have turned MultiFinder back on, and the application launches just fine. Any idea what's going on here? Manny Esguerra
