I have to say, DupeLocator (downloaded from www.tinyapps.org ) has be one of the handiest tools I've had the pleasure of playing with :-) given that I'm prone to scattering images all over my hard drive to burn to a CD image, to tuck into a 'specially named' file or simply because I've lost track of what's where - that little prog spent 3 minutes going through over 10G of files to find 174Meg's of duplicate files for me to delete. is that cool or what? karl
