I saw a similar question posted about this but the answers didn't
seem to resolve my problem.

No matter what I try to paste into any type of word processor
document in works, I get a "your computer does not have enough memory
to complete this task". I have closed out the other programs,
restarted, etc. I have 512 MB RAM so I don't see how that could be
the problem.

I also emptied the "Temp" folder, which didn't help, unless there is
another "temp" folder elsewhere that I missed. This one was under
documents and settingsdefault userlocal settings...(or something
like that).

Any advice would really be appreciated. The inability to "paste"
ANYTHING into a document really limits it's functionality.

Better still, if you are really using Works 6.0, you should post in
microsoft.public.works.win, to which I am cross-posting my reply.

Am I the only one who thinks that the juxtaposition of the names
"public" and "works" in that newsgroup name is particularly
infelicitous?

To me, it conjures up images of highway construction, sewers,
plumbing, etc.

I hadn't thought of it that way, but now I'll be unable to look at it
without thinking of that!

Hi Lorraine,
Try "Paste Special\unformatted text".
