Christopher, Open Terminal in your home directory and type: ln -s .Trash Trash Quit terminal and open the Finder. In your home folder you will see the new alias there - just drag the alias to the sidebar. You will not be able to rename and you will still have to empty the trash in the same way you used to.

Yes this is exactly what I want I had it that way at one time but I have since lost the icon and don't remember how I got it there (all I remember is creating a .trash folder) ----------------------------------------------------------- For information about MUGLO: http://www.freewebs.com/muglo -----------------------------------------------------------
