Hello,
This has happened to me once before so I'm not panicking - I should know better.
When I tried to open a file by dragging it to the PS 7.0 alias icon it disappeared!
I'm working with OS 9.2 on an iMac.
Please HELP!
Thank you,
Isabella

this is covered in the FAQs

The file is probably getting dropped into the Photoshop application "package". Open the Photoshop package to find the files. (Control click > show package contents).

I'm not sure about that...
Anyway:
It's a problem most likely do the application package format.
Navigate to the application.
Control-click and hold on it.
Choose "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu The application will open like a folder.
In that folder you may see your lost file.
You'll also see an alias of Photoshop.
Hold down the option key and drag that alias to your desktop. Close the application folder window.
Control-click and hold on the application again
choose "Hide Package Contents" from the contextual menu. Now, use the Alias on your desktop for your alias needs.

Ramon:
You got in just before me.
I was referring to Buko's suggestion that it is in the FAQs.

Thanks, John. I got totally confused.

I was referring to Buko's suggestion that it is in the FAQs.
Its been awhile since that question was asked. when PS7 was first released that was asked by someone almost every day. I was under the impression that it was added to the FAQs. I just looked and I don't see it.
Hmmm.....
sorry, I La Rocca, my bad.

Buko,
Just to show you I'm honest, this is commonly known as "a well known OS 9 bug". 8/

Well it was an OSX bug too.
