Actually, it's easier and safer to stick these resources in ThinkC itself, instead of MultiFinder. The instructions above are correct w/ ThinkC instead of MF, I believe. If these resources don't already exist in ThinkC (I don't know) then you should create them as 'STR#' , etc. -Phil Goldman Apple Computer
