George - are you running either Engage! or an older version of MetroTools? or autolaunching something else that would ask for Workspace for file icons or info?

If you're running something else, NeXT had released a workaround. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Gordon Van Huizen vox: 619.488.9411 fax: 619.488.3045 Metrosoft gvh@metrosoft.com [NeXTmail welcome] ----------------------------------------------------------------
