    Default Select and delete unused symbols won't record in an action

    The selection and deletion of unused brushes, styles, and swatches from the palettes in a document record properly in an action. (For some reason the swatches deletion doesn't provide an on/off dialog toggle icon in the action palette.) However, the same steps on the symbols palette don't get recorded in an action although the selection and deletion occur as expected in the document. My intention is to batch process these actions on a large number of files for the purpose of reducing their size. These older files were created before the startup templates themselves were relieved of this baggage. Any ideas?
    Thanks, Mike
