I can't find Result Code -5000 in Inside Mac. vols. III or V.  I have had 
problems with applications giving error messages with references to this 
result code lately.  It has something to do with the file system I guess.  
On one occasion it appeared when HyperCard tried to open a stack.  It was 
possible to open the same stack by double-clicking it.  
Anybody know what the code -5000 indicates?

Actually the problem may have disappeared after I ran Disk First Aid.  It 
found an error and was able to correct it.  However, I still wonder how 
the error got there.  Is it possible that an infection by WDEF A (for a 
few days) lately may be the source?
