I've had this sort of thing happen to me when launching ProDOS 8
programs from GS/OS.  It seems that the mapping of partitions under
ProDOS 8 wasn't getting all my partitions for some reason.  I have 11
ProDOS partitions on my hard drive and when doing something like
launching AppleWorks, my /Data/ partition with all my AppleWorks files
would not get mapped into a slot/drive so I couldn't get at them.  I'd
have to copy any file I wanted to work with to a different partition to
be able to access it.

This _might_ be the problem your running into but I'd have to look into
it further myself to be able to tell you how to check it or fix it.
