I have WP successfully installed and running on a local testing server and I have 'show hidden files activated' in DW but I cannot get my .htaccess file to show.I am running Snow Leopard on MAC can anyone provide me any solutions before I go quietly mad.G

If you have the option to show hidden files it should show. Try rebuilding the site cache. If that doesn't work, then I am thinking you never moved the htaccess file to the local testing server to begin with because it is a hidden file. If you don't see the file there, go back to the Wordpress files you originally downloaded and get the htaccess file out of there.
