For a school assignment I need to be able to copy my Vensim model into a MS Word doc. When I attempted to copy/paste it into Word, I got an error saying there is not enough memory to complete the operation. I am using Vensim on a Mac with Crossover software.

Did the copy from Vensim fail or the paste into word? One thing to do is simply use Screen Shots rather than copy/paste. I didn't think this worked at all with crossover so what you describe is actually progress.

In MS word copy past from Vensim should be very easy.

Lock the sketch
Highlight the model sketch you want to copy by dragging the cursor around it
Press Cntl-C
Past into word to get a "picture"

For graphs: Just click on the clipboard icon in the upper left of the graph.... past into word.

I don't think that these operations do not use a lot of memory.
