Hi,
    Two little problems that I'm sure has happened to every frequent Mac user
has happened to me.  They are

1.  When doubleclicking on a document the System cannot find the application it
    was created from.  The "Creator" and "Type" of both application and 
    document seem to be fine. This has happened two separate times with two 
    different applications.  Do I need to set a bit somewhere to get this 
    solved?
2.  When copying a file from one disk to another its icon got lost (i.e. became
    the generic document icon). Why did this happen?, How can it be avoided?

Please respond by mail unless you think there is sufficient interest on net.

P.S.    I want to thank all the netters out there who responded to my previous
    inquiries.  I don't know what I'd do without you. (Actually I do know 
    but Macintosh abuse is a federal crime in most states  :^)   )

                                    Scott
