Here is a strange one: System 6.0.5 Desktop Mgr And a supporting cast of many inits[ATM,ATR,SAM,ColorDesk, After Dark, etc. etc] Mac IIx/8 Megs Apple/Quantum 80 internal [formatted with SilverLining]. DPI 44meg Syquest drive [formatted with SilverLining] Attempt to drag to trash to delete and Finder "file copy" dialog box appears and seemingly attempts to copy the file to the internal 80meg drive rather than just tagging the file for the trash can. It seems to place a copy of the file on the internal hard disk. If I try and move the file from there to the trash again (yes the trash can hilites when I drop the file icon on it) or open the trash window and try to move it into the window the Finder again tries to copy the file and fails cause it is already there [whereever it is erroneoussly placing it]. Rebuilding the desktop seems to fix the problem for just a small period of time and then the problem appears again. I'm going to use ol Init CDEV and turn things on and off one by one with desktop rebuilds to see if I can track it down, but this one just seemed too strange. Anyone else come across this? -David
