= SYMPTOMS =

The following error message may be displayed when you try to print a word processing document containing a chart placeholder:

Spreadsheet not open: continue printing?

A similar message can occur when previewing the same type of document:

Spreadsheet not open: :

= CAUSE =

The Spreadsheet file that contains that chart is not open, or has been renamed. For example if you insert a chart from an unsaved spreadsheet, the placeholder reference will be to SHEETx.WKS, where x is a number. If the spreadsheet is then saved under a different name, the chart will not print or preview from the Word Processing document, and will display the above error messages.

= RESOLUTION =

Choose OK (press ENTER) to continue printing without the chart. To print the document with the chart, do the following:


 * 1) Choose Cancel (press ESC) to stop the print job or preview.
 * 2) Open the Spreadsheet file containing the chart.
 * 3) Switch back to the Word Processing document.
 * 4) If the name of the spreadsheet has changed, delete the current chart placeholder and reinsert the chart.
 * 5) Print the document.
