Hi,

    I've set up a sequence of calls like below:

        Str255        pStrA, pStrB;
        char          cStr[2000];
        Handle        h;
        int           length, offset;

        ZeroScrap();
        PutScrap (pStrA[0], 'TEXT', pStrA[1]);
        PutScrap (pStrB[0], 'TEXT', pStrB[1]);
        ...
        h = NewHandle (0);
        HLock (h);
        length = GetScrap (&h, 'TEXT', &offset);
        HUnlock (h);

    Length returns system error -108 (memFullErr - Not enough room
    in heap zone, iMemFullErr - same but from Print Mgr call).
    I've expanded heap, MaxApplZone, etc.  Any ideas???
