TRENT: I found that I had all kinds of Fonts on my workbench that didn't need to be there. I deleted them and went from a 100% full workbench to 82%. Then I loaded Autopilot successfully and that took up 8 % memory and now I'mm up to 90% on my workbench.

Joan, The numbers at the top of any drawer that you open (ie your Workbench: drawer, Work: drawer) are a measure of disk space usage, not memory. When you open your Workbench: drawer the numbers tell how much disk space you have in use in percentage and in KB, as well as how much space you have free. Only with the RAM: drawer does it measure available ram at the top (in essence the system uses the RAM: as if it was another harddrive). Trent 'Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori'
