I am running Word 4.0 on a Mac Plus with 2.5 Meg RAM.  System 6.0.3.
Also I am running Multifinder.  Here's the problem: I use Word 4.0 to
edit different sets of documents, so for each set I have a different
Word 4.0 settings file.  I keep these on the desktop, and then
whichever set of documents I have to work on I use its corresponding
settings file to startup Word.  Until last week this worked fine.
Then I downloaded Temprament 2.0 and installed it.  Now the following
happens: When I power up the Mac and select one of my Word 4.0
settings files I get a message that the application is busy or cannot
be found.  Okay, how about if I just try to open a Word document?
Same problem.  But I can open Word directly and then read these
documents.  So, I looked at the files using "View by type" and the
Word files all have the type field set to "About Temprament"!!!!  As
soon as Word 4.0 is opened the type field shows up correctly for all the
files.
