With system 7 having no finder [more deleted] Mark- Multifinder USES the FINDER. The problem you are having is that the Finder doesn't have enough memory allocated to it in MF. Try choosing Get Info for the Finder file, and raising the allocation by 128K or so... It comes standard at 160K, but mine is around 320K or so. 256K should do it for what you want, I think. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Alan D.
