Even better would be if someone posted the program "Lone Ranger" (that might not be the exact name, but it's close). It allows you to search and replace any type and/or creator for a whole directory of files at a time. I think it works recursively, too, so I suppose you could with 1 click change all the Tops files on your disk to WordPerfect (or whatever the original intention of Perfectionist was). In fact, if I can find it on my HD at home, I'll post it to comp.binaries.mac tonight. BTW, if anyone from CE Software is listening, I always thought that DiskTop should do this (since it does pretty much everything else). -- Steve Baumgarten | "New York... when civilization falls apart, Davis Polk & Wardwell | remember, we were way ahead of you." {uunet,cmcl2}!esquire!sbb | - David Letterman
