Betty, I used my Install Floppy and reinstalled everything and it seems to have corrected the problem. Thanks. It used a little more of my memory than I had before. Now I'm using 85% of my memory in my Workbench part. How can I eliminate unnecessary stuff? Hitting fairways and greens!

Joan, Yes, you can eliminate some things that you probably won't need. If you ever needed them again, you could get them from your INSTALL disks. If you don't use them, try deleting things like EDIT, the fonts, any printer drivers that you don't use. Be careful though. If you are not sure about any file, put it in the Wastebasket for a few days and see if things go well. If nothing breaks after several days, you can then empty the Wastebasket. But if something calls for a program you have moved to the wastebasket, you can get it back by just moving the icon over again. Saves lots of work to do it that way. In particular, you need to leave the libs: and devs: alone, and probably the c: directory, too. —Betty
