What is the purpose of the .dsm file? It sure gets huge, even for a small and simple project! Never too old to learn...

It contains browser symbol information.

You can tell Delphi not to create the .DSM file by clicking the appropriate radio button in Tools | Environment Options | Preferences | Desktop Contents

Thanks Andrew

Just a question: I deleted the file, and then Delphi complains about having to recreate it! Btw, I'm using D5E on W2K, although I don't know whether this is relevant. Never too old to learn...

What is the question?

Have you checked the right radio button?
