As to your questions. Excel 5.0 works okay with spreadsheets that I create on it. It also works okay with old Mac Excel 4.0 spreadsheets that I created before. The problem seems to occur when importing from a PC. The creating spreadsheet on the PC is Excel 2000. I have used the "Save-As" command to save the spreadsheet in every format that the spreadsheet supports (including Excel 4.0 and 5.0/95) and nothing seems to help. I know that type-1 is a type of memory error, so that was the reason I was playing with memory allocations on the Mac. The spreadsheet isn't huge. It contains only one worksheet. That worksheet is configured for landscape printing. It includes the company logo as a graphic at the top. Otherwise, its actually a very simple spreadsheet. I'm at a loss as to how to get this old 630 to read this spreadsheet. I want to be able to keep the 630 because its the only Mac in the office. But, I have to be able to import work. Any help would be appreciated. David -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
