Take Compactor (a great program whose praises have been deservedly sung in this group) and install the BinHqx DA into the application. Then, you don't have the DA cluttering up your apple menu all the time, but you can get to it when you need it. In case some of you are unfamiliar with the procedure for installing a DA into an application, it's easy. When you have the DA suitcase open and are about to open the suitcase you wish to copy the DA to, just hold down the option button and press "Open." This will allow you to open up any file in the Hard Drive (or floppy), and install a DA into it. It works really well, and now I have all my tools in one place. The preceding was another fine product of the fevered brain of wirehead@oxy.edu "When you need a warped opinion, and you care enough to send only the very best...choose wirehead." fnordfnordfnordfnordfnordfnordfnordfnordfnordfnord
