"Cannot Write to Disk" Message
__________________________________________________________________
Problem:  Unable to save or print a file  to disk on drive X, even 
though there is plenty of room on the disk.  

Explanation and Solution:  The problem is more likely to occur 
when using 3.5-inch disks or hard drives.  ProDOS allows only 51 
files/directories in the Root directory, no matter how much extra 
room is available on disk.   The solution is to remove some files 
or subdirectories from the root directory (Put these files in 
other subdirectories or on separate disks.)

Note:  Since AppleWorks always creates a temporary file on disk 
when saving, the maximum limit of files/directories in the Root 
directory when using AppleWorks is 50.
