WHile sort of on the subject of Word4 upgrades, I just remembered 
a problem with Word 3.02. Running Se-HD20, sys6.02, multifinder, and the
rest of it.
I often start a new file and, when it comes time to Save, rather than select 
a folder in the popup menu, I type something like
HD:texts:notes:thisfile to give a path to the folder and filename
I want. This part works. The trouble is, as I type and hit command-S,
a few saves work, and then I get an error message: "COuld not save to
named file. Please rename." or words to that effect.  Since I don't think
I get this problem w/ Excel or MacDrawII, I suspect it's Word3 getting
confused.  
ANy ideas?
