Dallas,Texas Lines: 12 Keywords: MASM, Microsoft No.. what you did was run a product called rm and it's associated program call undel. rm creates these directorys and makes a file called INDEX, undel undeletes the files using the info in the index file and the DELETE.NNN files are the ones you deleted. Microsoft Editor also uses a directory called DELETED. I suspect you did one or the other. Jack. P.S. I install 5.1 several weeks ago and it did nothing like you described. -- See above (214)661-8960
