Right.  That's why I asked the question.  I've already received several
replies by e-mail suggesting exactly what you did.  I do have that option
turned on, but frequently find holes developing in my ICON layout after doing
file deletion/moving.  Thus, I do a "Clean Up" far more often than a "Clean Up
Window", and posed my original question about making "Clean Up" the default.

Thanks for the replies so far,
