The information in this article applies to:
If you cancel more than one WordMail message while a modal dialog box is open in Word, Word produces the following error message when you close the modal dialog box:
There is insufficient memory. Word cannot display the requested font.
Note: A modal dialog box is any dialog box that requires focus and does not relinquish focus until you click OK or Cancel. Examples include File New, File Open, File Save, and Insert Object. Most dialog boxes in Word are modal.
The wrong windows are closed when the WordMail messages are canceled because the activate is not being changed properly.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95, version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
Method 1: Open only one WordMail message at a time.
Method 2: Close the modal dialog box before canceling the WordMail messages.
