SYMPTOMS
When you browse through the folders listed in a dialog box, you may see a folder that begins with three unrecognizable characters followed by "Move&Rename" (without the quotation marks).



CAUSE
You may see a folder whose name contains "Move&Rename" if you have File Sharing enabled on your computer.



STATUS
This is by design of Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition.



MORE INFORMATION
The folder whose name contains "Move&Rename" is an invisible folder located on the root of your System partition, and you will not be able to directly open or save any documents into this folder. The folder is created by the Macintosh operating system when you enable File Sharing (through the File Sharing control panel) and is deleted as soon as you stop File Sharing.
