MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

When updating spreadsheets that are linked into a Word Version 4.00 file with the following conditions, the screen goes blank and Word hangs. The conditions for the file are as follows:


 * 1) The file must be more than 35-40K.
 * 2) There must be at least two linked spreadsheet areas: one in the beginning of the file and the other at some location after 40 pages.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Version 4.00. This problem was corrected in Word Version 5.00.
