Please help! I've used "Cocktail," Option-Drag and Cmd-Drag approaches to get rid of an MS-Word 2004 doc and it just won't go away. I've checked the Get-Info box for this file--it's not locked and all permissions say this doc is mine. Why is this doc not cooperating? Do I have Permissions set properly or am I missing a step? Are there other options/third-party apps that can help me get rid of the file?

Please advise. Much appreciated!

How about you tell us exactly what is going on? What exactly do you do, and what exact error do you get?

Can you explain what "won't go away" means? Can you not move it? Will the trash not erase it when you try to empty?
