I'm trying to resize the window that comes up when I click on the "Work" disk Icon in WB 2.02. I drag it to the right place and size, and when I try to snapshot the window, it says "error 202: object is protected from deletion" (or some such quote). I check the .info file for it, and indeed it says ---arwe--- (or something like that: golly, I'm being rather precise today) So I understand that it can't be deleted. But how the heck can I get the window to change sizes? How does one un-deleteprotect a file if even for a moment? I've tried "Information" but it doesn't give any check boxes like the other information requesters do. Any ideas? /---------------------------------------------------------------------\ | -Doug Bischoff- | *** *** ====--\ | "It's so neat to | | -DEB110 @ PSUVM- | * *** * ==|<>\___ | see an AMIGA say | | -The Black Ring- | *** *** |______\ | "Welcome to | | --- "Wheels" --- | *** O O | Macintosh"" | | Corwyn Blakwolfe | T.R.I. ------------- | ---- AMIGA ---- | \---------------------------------------------------------------------/
