well there is bound to be something specific to your machine but type 2 errors are always address errors.<br>ID=02 Address Error<br>The Motorola 68000 microprocessor can access memory in increments of one byte (8 bits), one word (16 bits), or one long word (32 bits). The microprocessor can access a byte of information at an odd or even memory address. But it must access a word or long word at an even memory address. So, when the microprocessor attempts to read or write a word or long word at an odd address, you see this error. Since that's a 50/50 proposition when running random code, this one shows up quite often.<br><br>Now that leaves it open and there are numerous reasons why this may occur on your machine. <br>BUT <br>I am afraid that you are the person who knows them.<br><br>=============================================================<br>| "Behold the Turtle, he maketh no progress ==== until he sticketh out his neck." |<br>=============================================================
I cant figure this out, i tried giving more memory to the program, i even rebuilt my desktop, i tried norton utlities, and nothing has worked. I guess im just out of like eh.<br><br>

Found this in another forum:<br><br><blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>Microsoft extensions installed by Photoshop 5.5 cause crashes in Office 98;<br>Kodak extension follow-up<br>Update<br> Microsoft extensions Three readers (Steve Godun, Michael Frankel and Simon Brown) have now reported the exact same cause for system crashes in Office applications after installing Photoshop 5.5. <br><br>Photoshop 5.5 installs two Microsoft extensions that are a different version that what Office installs:<br><br>* Microsoft Structured Storage <br>* Microsoft Component Library <br><br>Apparently, Photoshop installs versions 2.22 of these extensions, while the OLE component of Word 98 installs version 2.24 (of possible relevance, the Internet Access component of Mac OS 9 reportedly also installs the older 2.22 version).<br><br>For Steve and Michael, the symptom was Type 2 errors in Microsoft Office applications (especially Word 98, when copying or saving). Steve has seen this occur on several installations. Simon's symptom was Type 11 errors in Word and PowerPoint.<br><br>The solution is to delete the versions of the extensions installed by Photoshop. When you next launch an Office application, the newer versions will be installed. Based on reports so far received, doing this does not cause problems for Photoshop itself.<p><hr></blockquote><p><br>Hope it's useful to you.<br><br>edit: I guess even if you haven't installed Photoshop recently, the moral is to check potential conflicts with newly installed applications.<br><br><br>And that's true too.--Shakespeare, King Lear<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by yoyo52 on 02/10/02 05:44 PM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>

<br>i now have Photoshop 5.5 and Office 2001<br>The extensions mentioned <br>MS Internet library 5.0.3c<br>MS structured storage 2.3.0<br>Mac OS 9.2.2<br>both work fine.<br>This is why I asked whether it was installed recently., as Office 98 or something else may have overwritten your extensions.<br>Probably more like IE 5.1 though than Photoshop. <br>I ran Photoshop 5.5 sucessfully with M$ Office 98<br><br>=============================================================<br>| "Behold the Turtle, he maketh no progress ==== until he sticketh out his neck." |<br>=============================================================
I ran a patch for office 98 and that seemed to help, thanks for your help everyone, i got it to work again. In case this happens to anyone else here is the link.<br>http://www.microsoft.com/mac/download/<br>but on a side note, yes i did recently install IE 5.1 but for some reason it wouldnt let me see Quick time videos, so i delted IE 5.1. But that must have been it.<br><br><P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by gnfnr2k on 02/11/02 02:03 PM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>

yeah I never use MS IE for much, especially QuickTime so I wouldn't know .. you probably need the latest version ..of QT.. for IE 5.1.<br>I only keep it around to make my iDisk pages. <br><br>=============================================================<br>| "Behold the Turtle, he maketh no progress ==== until he sticketh out his neck." |<br>=============================================================
