Claris CAD doesn't love IIfx

I tried Claris CAD 2.0 on my macIIfx, finding a strange behaviour: it
refuses to open more than one (1!) document. Just to test if the program
were corrupted, I tried it on some SE30 in my dept.: it works as it should.
Then I tried running it on another IIfx: same result as on mine. With a
document already open, whether trying to use the OPEN command on another
document, or to use the NEW file menu command makes me obtain the warning
"Sorry, there is not enough memory  available to open another document".
This is independent of the memory size set for the application (I set it to
over 2000 KB), as well as of the system configuration: after first trials
on sys 7 (even disabling all added extensions) I run the beast under sys
6.0.8, obtaining exactly the same results. My mac was originally a IIx,
where, in a few occasions, I ran ClarisCAD 1.0v5 without problems; then I
"upgraded" to fx, getting this surprise.
Final note: even ClarisCAD 1.0v5 now lets me open only one document ...
Any comment?
Thanks,

                    fab
