This is a very small application whose only purpose in life is to hold DAs. You may have run into desk accessories that don't like System 7, or you may want to keep a set of them available all at once. Either way, try installing them into this application with the Font/DA Mover or ResEdit.
Font/DA Mover: Open the DA suitcase that you want to install in one side of the Font/DA Mover. Hold down the option key and click Open... in the other side. This will allow you to see all files in the SF Dialog box. Select Extra DAs and click OK. Then copy the DA as you normally would.
ResEdit: Open both the DA suitcase and a copy of the Extra DAs application (always use a copy, just to be safe). Select all the resources in the DA's window with command-A, and then copy them with command-C. Switch to Extra DAs' window and paste the resources with command-V. If ResEdit complains that some resources have the same ID numbers, click the Unique IDs button to ensure that you don't replace any of them.
This isn't guaranteed to work for anyone at any time for any reason, but it has worked fine for me under both System 6 and System 7. Use at your own risk - a piano may fall on your head while using and it won't be the fault of Extra DAs.

Extra DAs was programmed by Glenn Chappell based on an idea by Ian Chai. It is free and freely distributable.
