Well the last two worked (except its the old version of Key Caps, incompatible with Apple's Font/DA Mover). But, as the flamage stated a while back, the calc's were sure-fire bombs (nothing 'resume' couldn't handle though). Well knowing that some DA's that worked on Finder 1.1 don't cut it on 4.1, I fired up an application and accessed the calculators. Bingo, two working calculators. Now I gotta know, what in the world is the Finder doing ( or not doing ) that wreaks such havoc on DA's? Mail your answers and I will surely summarize.
