SEARCH displays TILES, I need DETAILS

[George]

Am using WinXP-pro. When I do a search files and folders (let's say I'm
looking for all files and folders that contain *palmpilot*.doc), search
shows all the files as TILES, but I would like it to DEFAULT to DETAILS. It
used to work like this, I don't know what changed.

-Sure, you can click "View results differently" > Details... AFTER the
search, but it doesn't remember it as a default next time, it always goes
back to TILES

-I tried Tools > Folder Options > View > [X]Remember each folder's view
settings > [Apply to All Folders], but it didn't fix it

Would appreciate suggestions. Thanks,
George

Right click in the search results window, choose View, Details.

Thanks, but right clicking in the search window and selecting view > details
only sets it for that one time

When I do another search, it falls back to TILEs

What I'd like to do is set it to 'default' always to DETAILS, and it used to
do this...it always showed the details,

Thanks

George,

Did you ever get satisfaction on this? I've been searching the web for
months to no avail. It is extremely irritating. If you nailed it, please
post method.

Thanks,
