Windows Explorer computer navigation pane is missing...

I am running Vista home basic. I used to have a column on the left side of
my screen that listed the folder names when I opened up the "computer" option
using the Start button in the lower left of the screen. I could click the
folders open and they displayed their contents on the right. This made it
easy to move files around.

As far as I can tell this left column is called the Navigation pane. It has
disappeared and I cannot find a way to turn it back on. Any ideas?

I'm not even quite sure what I should be asking here -- if you need more
info from me, please ask. I'm not sure I even have the right name for the
thing. But right now I have no easy way to move files about unless I am
doing it from inside a program. I have tried the view options on the bar and
have searched help to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Wow! What a fast answer! And it worked! (Now why couldn't they have put
that in help? I've been trying to find the answer to this on and off for a
week and a half...)
