- Never underestimate the value of educating users.

-
- It's there, really! It's just a bit out-of-the-way.
-
- Standard disclaimers.
- Make sure you have a good backup copy of the original.
-
- Open AppleShare in ResEdit.
- Double-click on DITL.
- Double-click on ID -902.
-
- From the DITL menu, choose Select Item Number...
-
- You'll then see a box asking Select which item?
- (Between 1 and N)
- N=8 for AppleShare 2.0.2 (System 6)
- N=9 for AppleShare 3.0.0 (System 7)
-
- Enter 8. [Nothing appears to happen.]
-
- Now, from the Resource menu, choose Open as Dialog Item
-
- See the little box in the lower left that says Enabled?
- Click it to make the X go away.
-
- One more thing:
- Since it's notverynice to give subtly modified software to users,
- increase the Right: edge from 322 to 354, and add (Disabled)
- to the end of the Text: string. [You might also want to leave
- "footprints" in vers, while you're at it.]
-
- Close and save.
