*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
Hello out there......I have been running across
a neat bug quite freqeuntly these days....and I was wondering itf it
was really a bug that other people have
experienced or if it is just user error.....
The bug/error:
When clicking or double-clicking on some documents
I suddenly get an endless line of hyphens as the doc
name.....Of course I get the alert box telling me I can't have
a name longer than 31 chars. Click ok. More hyphens. Eventually I
win the war with the backspace and all is well....until...the
next time....any comments on this ine?
^one

[Line-Eater? What Line-Eater? *Chomp* 8-) ] Organization: Carnegie-Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pa. Position: Confused Undergraduate Um, I ran into that bug earlier this summer, when I was using a 512K, old Roms, and a 10mb HyperDrive. I don't know what caused it, but I faintly recall that replacing my System and Finder files helped.... What exactly are you using? (System and Finder version, Macintosh type, upgrades...) Hope this helps out a bit... --Rich Richard M.
