While in Macwrite (4.5) I used the calendar DA. Which for some
reason caused a system crash. When rebooting, I tried to 
launch a macwrite document, but couldn't. The info window 
of the document said it QDIAL Docs. ( I had just uploaded QDIAL and QDIAL DOC ). 
Now every document that was Macwrite is of type QDIAL docs, and Macwrite
creates documents of QDIAL type. I figure that the desk top or 
some resource is scrwed up. I have a Macbottom 20, finder 5.3, system 3.2.

Can I recreat the desktop? Should I? How do I? I noticed
there is garbage in my Macwrite document resource STR
which has resource id=700 which is "etnroaisdlhcf".
		Thanks
