- even after the program has been quit and restarted. I've used the
- System 7 Alias manager with great success. Now I have a user using
- sys6 who wants the same sort of capability...without the upgrade.
- What are the techniques used to handle this task. I don't want to
- reprogram the alias manager but would like to offer a very small
- subset of its capabilities. Currently my program can locate a file
- on the same volume as my application but has trouble locating the
- file across volumes. Inside Mac expounds on all the methods that
- don't work but none that do!!!

- tanx in advance,
