Can anyone suggest how I can overcome the problem of Appleworks hanging when resizing a spreadsheet?
I have tried the following to no avail:-
1. Deleted the Recent Items and Autosave from my Documents folder.
2. Deleted all the Preference Items with the exception of the Button Bars.
The strange thing is having done this a couple of times the resizing process worked - I wished to increase the number of rows in a spreadsheet from 1568 to 1824. Following the "hangs" I launched the Activity Monitor to watch the progress of this process and it starts off OK but fails when about three quarters of the way along the viewing panel with the notice in red " Appleworks hung". The spreadsheet then freezes and it is necessary to "Force Quit". I have also done a files check in single user mode and everything is OK and repaired my Permissions.
If anyone can offer a solution I would be most grateful.
Kind regards,
David Gurney
