Apologies if this is an old question - I assume it should be, tho' I haven't seen discussion of it here... When in Word (ver. 5.00, running on an SE/30 with System 7) I go to the open dialog box, I sometimes see a folder on my hard disk called Move and Rename (it actually has two little symbol boxes in front of the name but I can't do them here). It is invisible from any other application or the finder, but with ResEdit I can 'visibilise' it and it always turns out to be empty. I generally chuck it away, but it usually reappears after a while. I assume it is something created by the finder when I drop things into my system folder and it suggests where they should go, but perhaps not. Out of curiosity I'd like to know where this folder comes from and if there is any fix to stop it being created (or to stop it being seen by Word) I'd be interested, though it is hardly a problem. Any advice or help? Thanks in advance, Marcus Banks, Oxford, UK
