System name:		scotland
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7T (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Trying to save a file in framemaker. This file had already been
	created, edited and saved over the past few weeks. It was working
	fine.

What's wrong:
	Right now, I can't do anything in frame maker. I tried saving a 
	file as postscript, it cored. I tried saving the settings only
	on the print popup window, it cored. I brought up a document popup
	window and tried to cancel it, it cored. I tried to bring up another
	file which I haven't touched since the last time I edited it using
	frame, and it did exactly the same. The only operation I can do
	without coring is to save the file itself as a frame document.
	This is an emergency. I need to have some documents ready today.
	Help would be very appreciated.

What should have happened:
	Is this a rhetorical question ?

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Well, I'm on a Sun Sparc. The standard athena version. I am using
	the following commands to run frame (as always)
		add frame
		maker
	Nothing else. The files are innocuous. I am now convinced. I've tried
	two of them.

Thanx
Salal
