I tried it in XP, and it doesn't work. :(

D'ya think Microsoft listened to us berating the recycle bin?
Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . .

Oh, gosh, Marty, that's a bit existential. I just woke up from a nap and
now my head is spinning.

P.S. Thanks for the "open command window here" reg hack in another thread.
Are you the author of TweakUI or something? :)

Hi Robert,

I just picked up bits and pieces from various NGs.
I think the author made TweakUI in his spare time, while with MS, but has
since retired.

Robert,

I see by one of your posts that you went to GWU.
Are you still in the area?
If so, me2.

GWU is The George Washington University (in Wash. DC). I went to the *far*
better GULC (Georgetown University Law Center) up the avenue (turn LEFT! --
lol -- at the Capitol!).

Pretty please, others -- I'm just poking a little fun. Let's not get into a
whose law school is best thread. "My law school is bigger than yours ...."
etc. :-}

I knew you were in DC because of your ISP -- "erols.com" -- I used to rent
movies from my neighborhood Erol's on Capitol Hill where I lived for 23
years.

I now live in godforsaken Palm Beach County, Florida -- semi-retired at the
ripe old age of 54.

I *really* miss DC!

Meet you at the Hawk & Dove next time I come to town? :-} Please tell me
it is still there or I'll just cry!

Sorry about that, I went to neither so...
Anyway, I don't get to DC much, live in Rockville, so don't know about the
Hawk & Dove.

Oh, crud, Marty, Rockville, Maryland is a foreign country, only useful for
its shopping centers!

The Hawk & Dove is a popular Capitol Hill pub 3 blocks up Pennsylvania Ave
SE from the Rayburn House Office Building.

If you are not into politics, don't go there except when the Redskins are
playing.

And, thank god, LOL, it must still be alive. I "googled" it (sorry MSFT)
and found:

with TODAY's menu. Even the prices look pretty much the same. And, the
pictures made me homesick.

Next door was (is?) a really sleazy (not porny, just bad sanitation) bar
which was VERY popular with Capitol Hill staff back in my day. Many a Bill
(by which I mean legislation, not the check) was negotiated there, too.

Are you still a Redskins fan?
My son moved to Baltimore and deserted to become a Ravens fan. ;(
From a last place team to a first place one.
I just can't understand that. :)
Yea, I lived in DC too long to become a fan of any team in Baltimore.
