Icon in Standalone

[Scott Morrow]

Hello Randy,
You might try copying one of the pLists from your other apps and  
editing the relative bits and then replacing the one that won't open  
with the newly edited one.  I haven't had any problems with pList  
"corruption," though.  Are you using a pList editor to open it with or  
a text editor?
