Description:
I have two questions which, I assume, are unrelated.
1. Please tell me how to print only certain records of a
large database file in ClarisWorks 4.0. With MicrosoftWorks I could "mark" records for printing, but I can find nothing comparable to that in my ClarisWorks menus or manual. (And I read the "d . . ." manual, promise!)
2. After working on the aforementioned DB much of the day, my computer crashed as it was shutting down. The following "Bomb" message was displayed:
"Sorry, a system error occurred.
'Finder'
bus error. RESTART"
The restart button did not work, so I had to do a Force Restart. I immediately ran Norton Disk Dr. and minor problems were fixed. To be safe, I trashed my Finder Preferences before shutting down again.
I have NEVER had a crash at shutdown. I had worked on the above database much of the day and had surfed the net a while and exchanged e-mails, but had downloaded nor installed any new software. Three days before the crash, I did download, but have not as yet installed the following software from Casady & Greene: Conflict Catcher 8 Update.1 and Sherlock Assistant.
Two days before the crash, when Norton Utilities File Saver was scanning during my shutdown, I got the following message:
"Examined the file ATM Temp.ATM.
An error occurred during the scan.
CONTINUE"
I rebuilt my desktop when I restarted.
Help me, if you can.
Thank you,
GH
