Judging by the 'File in use' errors I've seen while trying to do something to one of the Suitcase Da files, I would say it keeps them all open. It would be nice to get verification of this, though. Can anyone explain the difficulties in opening additional resource files under MF? Suitcase won't, and is documented as such, so I assume it must be a good reason. How does Font/DA Mover 3.6 cope with this, since it does work under MultiFinder? -cbb Chris "Johann" Borton, UC San Diego ...!sdcsvax!net1!borton borton@net1.ucsd.edu "Letztes Jahr in Deutschland, noch ein Jahr hier, en dan naar het Nederland!
