Tomasz, I never MOVED any afl files in Windows Explorer (only
deleted). I'm quite sure these files were in the AFL folder from
before the ChartTree/Drag&Drop feature was introduced and they simply
stayed there.

Yes I've seen that, but in order to keep the "shipped" formulas it
would seem more appropriate to have a one-time operation of moving
everything from AFL to Formulas folder. This however will probably
lead to "File cannot be found" messages... ?
It's kind of strange, am I the only one with indicators in the "old"
AFL folder? In any case, what would you advise ?
