[comp.sys.mac.system] Problem with stack: DiskDoubler and Excel

long@mcntsh.enet.dec.com (Rich Long) (09/12/90)

I have a problem with DiskDoubler v3 and Excel v1.5.  Whenever I try to open a
DiskDoublered worksheet from the SF dialog, I get a stack error (not a bomb, a
dialog) from DiskDoubler.

I sent a letter to Salient, and today got a call from Lou (Lee?) Chambers. He
indicated that DiskDoubler does a check for available stack space (4K, I
think) and refuses to run if there is less than that. He thinks that Excel
might be using a small stack either on purpose or just by default. If by
default, he thinks it comes from the "System default stack size".

Can I change this, and if so, how? If not, can I change Excel so it uses a
bigger stack?

p.s.: System 6.0.5, Mac SE, lots of INITs.

Thanks for the help,
