I've been meaning to post this for a while ...

for the past month or two, I've been getting the message
"application not found" whenever I try to open a document
whose application is buried a couple of levels deep in the
HFS.

I thought that the Desktop file was supposed to keep track
of this.  I've tried fixing the desktop with the application
"fix desktop" (yes, I had the "fix application list" option
checked off), but to no avail.

What am I doing wrong?  Am I mistaken in any of my assumptions?

Thanks,

Brad
