Vista and Briefcase
m3d0c,
Sorry for the furstration. This is still possible in Windows Vista. Please follow these steps to accomplish this task: 1) Open your Briefcase 2) Right-click the item that you would like to orphan 3) Select "Properties" 4) Select the "Update Status" tab 5) Click the "Spit From Original" button 6) Confirm the dialog Let me know if this answers your question.
