ARev and Microsoft Office (AREV Specific)

A number of our users have need for Word and/or Excel to be open alongside a legacy ARev application.
During the day, when they toggle between ARev and Word etc they will eventually, and with no apparent pattern, get the message
'RTP57 line 1 B114 Maximum number of variables exceeded'
printed 3 or 4 times on the monitor. In the foreground there is a message box with either 'B161- OK' or 'W175-OK'. Clicking OK toggles between the two messages. This happens, on average, 4 or 5 times per day.
I have played with the memory settings on the desktop icon that calls the ARev application with a little success - the best I have managed to achieve is to increase the time between the messages appearing.
If anyone has any suggestions I would be very grateful!
We are running:
Novell 4.2 (also happens on 3.12)
Windows 95
Novell Client 3.1.0.0
Office 97 (also happens on Office 2000
Revelation NLM 1.5

A lot of my users were having this problem and also distorted video in Arev that they could not pull out of. Funny we were all running identical machines and I never had the same problem. What it boiled down to is that I never toggle between apps. I have a habit of using the minimize for the Word window and I use Alt/Enter to reduce Arev to a window and minimize it. When my users stopped using the toggle and resorted to switching via the task bar, they no longer had problems.

Thanks Donna
Running that way has reduced the number of problems, but not stopped them totally.
Any other ideas ?
