Can someone tell me why version 2.2 (the original that shipped with
the
128k macs) of MacWrite works fine (except for the fact that it is
obsolete and inadequate) on my new mac LC, but version 4.5 crashes
the system?  I would tend to think later versions of the same
program would usually work better on newer machines.  Sure, there
are better word processors out there (including MacWrite II), but 
why pay money I don't have when I already own two versions of
MacWrite?  Please let me know if you know of a way to make
MacWrite 4.5 work on my LC.  Thanks.

Please e-mail me directly as I don't normally read this news group.

Thanks again,
Larry Smith
