Best guess is you are using a font with some odd characteristics for the search field. Simpler than deleting, etc. is to left arrow to get before the first character. Or click anywhere in the box and press up arrow. Another thought is to edit the toolbar (where the search box is), it's under one of the finder menus, and delete the search box, then re-create it. I can't give you specifics, I'm not using OS X at the moment. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
