Thanks to everyone that responded to my request for help with rebuilding the
Desktop file without losing the Get Info comments.
The suggestion most people came up with was to use Disk Express. It has a
'Desktop Optimize' option to clean up the Desktop file.
The other worthwhile suggestion, was from Anton Rang, who offered me a copy of
his 'Fix Desktop' utility. Fix Desktop does three things: deletes surplus file
comments, deletes surplus bundles, and fixes bad application lists. I have
tried this and it works just fine. Fix Desktop is in the public domain and
will be posted shortly. Thanks Anton.
