= SYMPTOMS =

When you attempt to place a border around all cells in a spreadsheet, the computer stops responding (hangs). You also might receive Out of Memory messages.

= MORE INFORMATION =

This problem occurs when an entire spreadsheet has been selected, and you try to change the border format of a cell. If you select only a portion of the spreadsheet, borders should function normally.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works versions 4.0, 4.0a, and 4.0b. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
