Hold down the command key to open a DA when memory is low. The key
causes MultiFinder to start the DA in the application's partition
(preallocated memory), not in some new allocation (that fails because
the heap is nearly full). This is documented in your macintosh user's
manual, I believe.
If this doesn't work for you, you might try switching to an
application with plenty of free memory (go to the word processor and
close all your windows?) and try it again.
