Hi Folks. I downloaded a zipped folder to my desktop that contained a
lot of UPS shipping zones. I forgot to direct the files to a temp
folder on my hard drive and opened 602 files on my desktop.
I have tried deleting them in groups and one by one and then emptying my
Recycle Bin. But they come back when I reboot. I cannot begin to
understand the explanation on Google for 'comma separated values' It
looks like I need some kind of program to decode them or change them to
my Word 2000 in WinXP?
What is it I need to do to clear my desktop. Thanks. deango

You can open .csv files with Excel.

To move all .csv files from your desktop to the folder c:\temp, do this:
- Click Start / Run
- Type cmd {OK}
- Type these commands verbatim:
md c:\temp {Enter}
move "%UserProfile%\Desktop\*.csv" c:\temp {Enter}

Go into My Computer, then the desktop folder for your account, and move
them.
