How does a user of WinXP Home Edition, w/SP2, condition the OS to show files
names in LIST mode and not Icons/Details/etc?

I have many folders with upwards of 100 files and to show them as Icons (my
installation's defaut) make it very difficut to look for one file in
particular.

I notice on my Gateway laptop running WinXO Pro that they are shown in LIST
format, but not on thie recently installed older computer.

Thanks...

Set Explorer up how you want it view'd

In the Menu bar Tools - Folder Options - View and click on "apply to
all folders.

While your there also go down the list and show extensions, show
protected and unhide system files.
