Put an alias to the Microsoft User Data - wherever you have moved it to - in the Documents folder on your startup disk - where it expects to find it. Naturally it will only work when the remote disk is mounted. (For some reason you don't say which OS you're running. I'm assuming OS 8 or 9. If you're in Classic in OS 10.2 or later, the correct place for the MUD folder or alias is the Documents folder of your OS X user folder.) -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To search the archives: <http://athena.doe.com> Unofficial Outlook Express Page: <http://www.macemail.com/oe/>
