Abstract: A file spacing and location indicating device for spacing apart files, particularly hanging files, in a drawer and indicating their location in the drawer so that files removed from the drawer may be quickly and easily returned to their proper place in the drawer. The device includes a mounting rod having a pair of opposite end portions and an elongate portion extending between the end portions of the mounting rod. The end portions of the mounting rod are designed for mounting to a hanging rail of a hanging file system. A plurality of separators are provided each having an attachment portion and an indicator portion outwardly extending from the attachment portion. The attachment portion is generally C-shaped and has a pair of arcuate arms defining an attachment space therebetween through which the elongate portion of the mounting rod is extended. The arms of the attachment portion of each of the separators are designed for releasably holding the elongate portion of the mounting rod in the attachment space so that each of the separators is pivotable about the longitudinal axis of the elongate portion of the mounting rod.
