- 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 MetroTools we have an upgrade that fixes that problem
- and has a lot of other fixes/enhancements.
-
- If you're running something else, NeXT had released a workaround.
