     When running MacWrite 4.5 on a Mac Plus with an 80Mb hard drive, any
attempt to save a file in "text only" mode results in a Bomb #10.
A normal save works properly.
However, when I try the same thing on an adjacent Mac 512K, the problem does
not occur.   The copy of MacWrite does not appear to be damaged; I can run
the one from the Mac Plus on the Mac 512K (via TOPS) without trouble.

     Known bug?  Fix known?

     Please reply by mail; I don't read this group often.
