Hi y'all !

  I am at my wit's end with StatView II and MacDraw II 1.1 !  At work I am
trying to use these two to create charts for a paper, but I have been
unable to get MacDraw II to accept charts copied from StatView II !  I have
tried turning colour off, pasting the chart into a scrapbook, then into
MacDraw, direct paste and so on - in Finder and MultiFinder.  Despite these
being small charts (THREE bars  :-(  ), and having 5 megs of RAM on a IIcx,
MacDraw gives me a "Sorry, there is not enough memory to do this" error 
every time !  Grrrr ...
  Changing RAM allocation to 4 megs did not help.
  Anyone know what I am doing wrong ?  I have ordered DeskDraw and hope 
that THAT will solve this mess.  But I don't see why MacDraw can't have 
these simple charts pasted in !!  I can see I am going to have to hope that
the "Pro" version fixes this ... but I need this capability NOW !!    :-p
  Any help mightily appreciated !
                                               regards, Jack
