- **** HFS fix for Area Codes Desk accessory ****
-
- “Area Code” is a valuable DA for use on your Terminal Software
- disk. It allows you to immmediately know where in the heck in the
- country you’re calling so you can stay one jump ahead of the
- phone company. Unfortunately, if you use Area Codes on an HFS
- disk, it has trouble finding the file, “Area Code File”, which
- should be on the disk whose system has “Area Code” DA installed.
-
- Here’s how to fix that:
-
- First, you’ll need a resource editor, like ResEdit.
-
- Fire up ResEdit, and open the DA “Area Codes”.
- Youll see a “STR#” resource in the DA; it’s resource ID should
- be -16000. Open this resource, and you should see a box showing
- the string “Area Code File”. All you have to do is enter the
- exact file path name in this box.
- For example, let’s say you have “Area Code File” on the desktop
- of a disk you call “Comm Disk”. The pathname would then be:
- “Comm Disk:Area Code File”. You may also put “Area Code File” into
- a folder, just follow the HFS convention:
- “Volume Name:Folder Name:File Name”.
-
- Area Code DA still works as is under MFS.
