- I tried to send a message a week or two ago and it seemed to bounce all
- over the place. I'm trying again. If you've already seen this, I
- apologize.

- I have been testing executor since 199c. Using 199c, I was able to get
- Microsoft Word 5.1 to work, but since then I haven't been able to get
- anything to work. Word simply crashes the system with an "unhandled
- trap". I've tried to use ClarisWorks but the screen is drawn all wrong
- and the menus don't work right (they try to scroll as if the menu
- wouldn't fit on the screen, and then menu items are duplicated). Whenever
- a dialog box has come up, the window is redrawn all wrong (it tries to
- draw a much smaller window). When I tried to use FileMaker Pro it said
- that all of the files were corrupt, even if I tried to create a new one,
- so I can't get beyond the first dialog box.
-
- I've tried executor on DOS and Linux (1.0.8) with a 486-50 with 16Megs.
- I've tried adding memory with applzone, I've tried reducing bit depth
- (ClarisWorks just crashes if I try -bpp 1), I've tried refresh and
- noclock. Am I doing something wrong, or am I expecting too much out of
- the experimental version.
-
- I really hope to be able to use executor succesfully. Any suggestions?
-
- Thanks,
