Jerry, I read in one of the magazines (I think) that Info gets
confused sometimes when it saves your TOOLTYPE changes to disk.
It loses the ending NULL which causes the routines reading the
TOOLTYPE to act funny.  That's why when you go back to Info and
look at the TOOLTYPES there are more characters there than what
you put in.  The recommendation made was to check every change
made to TOOLTYPES by calling Info up a second time.  If what
you see in the window is correct then the TOOLTYPE has been
correctly saved.  I ran into a problem once with a program I
was running via Xicon.  Took several tries to get a good save
of the TOOLTYPES.  I ended up deleting all the TOOLTYPES, saving
and retyping them back in via the add gadget.

Hope this helps you with your problem.

Dana
