I'm trying to find those little metal, odd shaped,with 2 pointed ends that with pressure stick into the dresser drawer frame, thingy's..they hold the drawer in place , so it can glide in and out...The question is; What are they called and does anyone know where I can find replacements?

Do you mean something like glazing points?

Oh, that's good...YES!!! Do you know what they're called? I have a beautiful large solid oak dresser that I'm trying to bring back..have all but 3, I think. They sort of resemble glazing points.....

If these "things" you are looking for are attached to a drawer, could you take just the drawer to a local furniture store and ask for help, or, at the very least, a photo.

Push points or glazing points, common. Bring one to a real hardware store, look for a white haired clerk and ask.

I could, but, they don't use these thingy's on new furniture anymore..but, a photo, I can do..was sort of hoping that I could find out what they're called , so I could research them on line...can't find anything, without a proper name. They actually attach to the bottom of the dresser drawer frame...UGH! I will keep chugging along. I'll get to the bottom of this! hehe
