I think there was a discussion of related problems in this newsgroup
recently, but I can't find it.

I have a IIci with 8 Mbytes in it. Every time I try to start up MS
Excel 1.5, I'm told 'not enough memory'. Actually, 'fragmented
memory'. Since I clearly have enough memory, there must be some
conflict with an init/cdev (of which I have quite a few installed).
Someone must have a catalog of the inits that won't work with Excel.
Could you point me to this? There seems to be little point in dumping
on MS's memory use schemes once again, so I'll refrain.
