Turner) Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 22 Summary: Yeah, I had a similar problem with MacWrite, that is, that I had to swap disks enough times when loading a document from another disk that I could have typed the thing in again! I got around this, though, by using a RamDisk (I have a fat Mac) containing MacWrite and the system stuff. Since this gives a (virtual) two drive system, there is no problem with loading stuff from another disk. When you click "open", it will give you a window in which you can select the internal drive or the RamDisk, and you can eject the startup disk and replace it with the disk containing your document. It works like a charm! Roy -- The above opinions aren't necessarily those of etc, etc...but they should be!!
