(Gotta bug my dealer about getting a manual one of these days.) Once a volume or folder has been opened, or an icon moved out of a window on to the desktop proper, is there anyway of finding out what the complete pathname of something is? The "Info" function only tells you the volume something is in, not its complete path. I just know the time is going to come that I have gone enough directories deep that I'll have something opened up and thoroughly forgotten how I got there. That's especially true for applications and utilities that are buried a couple of directories down but which I leave out on the desktop so they can be quickly found when i need them.

I just know the time is going If the intention of finding the pathname is simply to know which window to drag the icon back to (to undelete it), you can also use the put back (or something to that effect - I don't have my GS right now) command under the files menu. -- Subash Shankar Honeywell Systems & Research Center ihnp4!srcsip!shankar
