File Properties

[Guest]

Hi all,
I have just recently upgraded to Windows Xp after using 2k for a long time.
The one question I have is that in 2k when I hover the mouse over a file, the
file shows all the details in a popup window.Details such as File name,
keywords, manager company name etc. All I get in XP is the file size , file
type and modified date. Is it possible to switch these other functions back
on. I did in fact use this function regularly in 2k to see who had written
the document or from which company etc.

Thanks
Murray

click start, control panel, click appearance and themes, then click folder
options, select view, scroll and select the options you want.

Already tried that option ! The option I am looking for is not in the list,
so if anyone knows a way for windows to display all the properties, please
let me know.
Thanks
Murray

Hi Murray,

This sounds like third party: See line 112 (right hand side) and 90 (left
and right):

If not, use the reverse on line 11. Good luck, either way!
