 - Microsoft Works for the Macintosh, versions 4.0, 4.0a, 4.0b

SYMPTOMS
========
 
When you try to edit an embedded spreadsheet in a word processing document,
Works quits or stops responding (hangs).
 
This occurs if a story frame or a text box has been inserted in that
embedded object.
 
STATUS
======
 
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works version
4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it
becomes available.
 
RESOLUTION
==========
 
An embedded spreadsheet object is not designed to support
the story frame or text box features. When these features
are inserted in the object, Works quits.
 
To avoid this problem, do not use the story frame or the
text box features in an embedded spreadsheet object.
