Has anyone out there also had problems with Mac*Tracks and MacPaint? The first time I tried to install it it would always end with a long bell. I've seen this happen before, but don't know what it is. I then tried again later to install it; this time it went fine. Now, however, Show Page in MacPaint always bombs ID=10 (line 1111 trap). I tried to delete Mac*Tracks with the Font/DA Mover; it thought it did. Funny thing: when selected it said only 678 bytes selected, and I know that Mac*Tracks is more on the order of 17K because that's what my disk space decreased by when I installed it. After deleting it I ran Paint; it still bombed. Went back to the DeskTop, and what should I see but a Mac*Tracks File. Couldn't delete it or the Paint 1 and 2 since the INIT bits were set. Used Fedit to clear those bits, and then trashed the three files. Ran Paint again, still bombed, and on the Desktop were the same three files with the INIT bit set again. There must be some resource from Mac*Tracks that isn't bundled with the DRVR and is recreating the file every time, as well as the bomb. Anyone know of a cure? Chris
