    Hi,

    I am running OS8.6 w/office 2001.

    I brought a excel file to my Mac from a PC. When I tryed to save it I
    got the hour glass and it just stayed there and wouldn't save so I had
    to shut the machine down.

    Later I began to have the same problem with Word. It seems to be getting
    worse. Now I can't save or open any existing file in excel or word.

    Before this happened it seemed to me that Word was slowing a lot and
    doing a lot of hard disk "thrashing" as I was opening, closing, saving.

    I have increased the memory alottment, tossed the preferences and
    renamed to normal.doc.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Jared
