I just got a 30M hard drive. I installed a number of applications w/o any problem. The only one which is causing any trouble is MS Word (3.01). When I try to open its documents (from the finder), I get the "application busy or not available" box. I put Word in the same folder as the documents and still have the same problem. If I put a Word floppy in the internal drive, then opening a document on the hard drive runs Word off the floppy. There is nothing wrong with the copy of Word on the hard drive -- if I open it directly, I can then open any of the documents from within the program and run normally. The "type" and "creator" fields all look correct. I tried setting various combinations of the "bundled" and "inited" bits, with no effect. If you remember the solution or saved the previous string, please let me know. Thanks. -- David Rudolph CSnet: rudolph%isc.intel.com
