In converting a 17-page, 155K MacWrite document to MS Word I seem to be
running into an insurmountable problem.  After about five minutes into
the conversion process an Alert Box appears on the screen, as follows:

	Session too long: insufficient space
	on Word disk.  Save your document
	on another disk and quit.

I click OK and the first screen and part of the document appears.  If I
try to advance through the document it appears that the machine is frozen.
All mouse activity is apparently ignored.  Yet, if I let the machine sit,
a new line of text or graphic will appear every minute or so.

If I attempt to save the document nothing happens; no disk activity occurs
(i.e. for *hours*).

Note that the document contains *both* text and graphics (actually quite a
lot of graphics).

Anyone have any ideas??  I've converted documents in this manner before
with no problems.  Is Microsoft tolerant of requests for assistance over
the phone?
