If you have a mouse, just click on the block you want to look at, and a small window will pop up, showing what files belong to all of the clusters that block represents. It also tells you if it's fragmented, unfragmented, or unmovable. If you don't have a mouse, pick the 'Walk Map' option in the Information menu. You then use the arrow keys to move around, and hit ENTER to display the information. --------------- Andrew Rossmann | Sysop of Infoplus BBS, +1 708 537 0247 andyross@infopls.chi.il.us | Infoplus Support, latest version available uunet!ddsw1!infopls!andyross | by logging in as infoplus.
