[comp.sys.mac.system] Error -97 on opening DAs and other bugs

Hello,

I have been running system 7 on my Mac at home.  I have an SE/30 with 5 meg
of ram and a 40 meg internal.  Most of the time I try to open a DA, I get the 
error message -97, which is port in use error.  What is going on?  Some
DAs work
and some don't.  I have a IIcx at work and the all the DAs work.  Also,
On both 
machines I am getting a very annoying bug.  When I choose to open a
document and the
open dialog box comes up, It pick a document for me, so I don't get the chance
to select a document to open.  This usually happens with public domain stuff.
I haven't noticed this with the bigger applications.  Is this application 
specific, or is there a problem with the system?

Thanks,

Chris
