Howdy,
I am looking for an explorer style application that might allow me to view files from different ways. For Example, I have the following file structure. C:\User1\Acct\Books.xls C:\User1\Acct\Cats.xls C:\User1\Purch\File1.doc C:\User2\Acct\Books22.xls C:\User2\Acct\Cats55.xls I know I can go through the file structure and look at the file for each user in the Acct folder. What I also want is to be able to attach files to a virtual folder so I can simply type c:\Acct (or something similar) and see all 4 accounting files. I guess you could say I am looking for a way to group files other than the folder structure. Any ideas? TIA Dragon Dragon |

hmm, not for single systems on a daily basis.Too many files changing.
I think this is suppose to be feature of Longhorn (unless they have taken it out).

Very true.
You could probably create a cmd file and leave it to run whenever you want. The only problem I see if with having multiple grouping. You file structure may not always be same for every user. So it might be nice to simply right click on the file, Add to Group, Select an existing group or create a new one. This way you can simply see all the files that are part of a group. I guess similar to how you can group contacts in outlook.
