| | Moving a directory / file from 1 location to another folder Easy with XP, click on the folder, go to Edit->Move to Folder with a handy button on lower left screen that allows a user to "Make NEW folder" In all my years of using computers (27 years) I have NOT come across such a dysfunctional app as VISTA. You gotta be real good to make something this BAD. Any help is apprecitaed. Have a Great Week! |

| | Re: Moving a directory / file from 1 location to another folder What's wrong with drag & drop? Or Cut & Paste? I added the "Copy to" and "Move to" to my right-click menu, but some people say that can cause problems. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...ht-click-menu/ "MrMusic" <MrMusic@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:2k8if39aei9r8nl61t67pbmsu10ea86q0t@xxxxxx Quote: > Easy with XP, click on the folder, go to Edit->Move to Folder with a > handy button on lower left screen that allows a user to "Make NEW > folder" > > In all my years of using computers (27 years) I have NOT come across > such a dysfunctional app as VISTA. > > You gotta be real good to make something this BAD. > > Any help is apprecitaed.

| | Re: Moving a directory / file from 1 location to another folder MrMusic You can enable the old style menu bar temporarily in Windows Explorer by simply pressing the ALT key. You can enable them permanently by selecting Organize/Layout and selecting the Menu Bar option. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "MrMusic" <MrMusic@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:2k8if39aei9r8nl61t67pbmsu10ea86q0t@xxxxxx Quote: > Easy with XP, click on the folder, go to Edit->Move to Folder with a > handy button on lower left screen that allows a user to "Make NEW > folder" > > In all my years of using computers (27 years) I have NOT come across > such a dysfunctional app as VISTA. > > You gotta be real good to make something this BAD. > > Any help is apprecitaed.
