How to show Keyword field in Details view???

[Susan]

Hello Everyone.
I have approx. 3,000 photo's on my computer which I have
spent hundreds of hours cataloguing, i.e.:
In Windows XP Explorer ...
*click on filename to highlight
*right-click and choose 'Properties...'
*Enter info. for:
-Title
-Subject
-Author
-Keywords
-Comments

What has gotten me extremely frustrated is this ... when
I view the file information in Windows Explorer
in 'Details' view, I can choose from about 32 different
fields/column (such as Date Created, Owner, Subject,
etc., etc.), but the only one that isn't available to
pick from is the Keyword field. I am not able to see a
column in Explorer which shows which keywords are
associated with each file.

Can anyone offer any feedback on this please? Is there
any fixes, power toys, etc., etc. that will allow me to
view a column of keywords associated with each file?

Thanks to all who have taken the time to read and respond.

Why don't you get some decent software instead?

Yes, well, that's all good and fine (as I already have
the top five graphics programs available ... Adobe,
ThumbsPlus ... ACDSee... etc., but the question still
needs an answer ...
