SYMPTOMS
When you run a wizard or an add-in in a Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh
Edition program, you may receive various out of memory and run-time errors.
For example, you may see error messages that are similar to the following:
Run-time error '31032':

Memory is too full to perform the operation. Try again after closing a
window, or try increasing PoerPoint's preferred memory size with Get
Info.

your work.

Out of memory

The project file " is corrupt and can't be loaded.

CAUSE
This problem may occur if you run multiple wizards or add-ins and you are
using the default memory settings for the Office 98 program.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, increase the preferred memory size by 2,000
kilobytes for the affected Office program.
The following example shows you how to increase the preferred memory size
for Microsoft Excel. To do this, follow these steps.
- Quit Excel if it is currently running.
- Double-click the Microsoft Office 98 folder on your hard disk.
- Click the Microsoft Excel icon.
- On the File menu, click Get Info.
- Increase the number in the Preferred Size box by 2000.
- Close the Microsoft Excel Info window.
NOTE: Each additional wizard and add-in uses additional memory, so it may
be necessary to further increase the preferred memory size of the affected
Office program.
