Thanks Dennis, Ron, Mike and Jenny. This doesn’t bother me except to know I am stuck with seeing these files and needing to be careful which I select when loading a file. Also, if I need to add more saved searches and changes to names, the list of phantom files could grow. I believe Legacy should provide a delete button which would make deleting a saved search easy.
Thanks again. bgj -----Original Message----- From: Ron Ferguson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2011 6:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Deleting Saved Searches Thanks Dennis, Changing the Register doesn't bother me, but to be quite honest its not one of those things which I have ever used, nor expect. so it can just stay as it is :-) Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ -----Original Message----- From: Dennis M.

Not what I >would expect, but there we go!! Well, I never even knew that existed! I just tried it in LTools and it does the same thing ... and I know I didn't code that. So it must be a Windows feature. I created a similar situation on my PC (C:\Legacy75\aa.sc0) and then searched the Windows Registry and found two instances of this string in... HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1935660301-3994649378-1938176457-1005\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\sc0 So I would guess that deleting the appropriate registry key would solve the problem. If one is not comfortable with using regedit.exe ... rent a geek to do it. It's not worth hosing your PC. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools P.S. Use plain text if you want me to read your post...
