To all,

We're running CAP on an IBM RT and need some advice on the following 
problem.

When Mac users connect to their RT server directory, then open a document 
residing on the RT into MS Word v4.0 on their Mac, all seems to be well.  
When they edit the file, for example run the spell checker and make 
various changes, all seems well, but when they use Word to save the edited 
version of the file back to the server, the process of saving the file to 
disk corrupts the file (severely).  Additionally, in situations like this, 
Word will sometimes "Unexpectedly quit"--which also results in a damaged 
file.

On the other hand, we can copy files (drag them) to/from the server to the 
local hard drive w/ no problems.

Also, what IS the most curent version of CAP?

Chas.
