| 224681 | 2004-03-23 21:24:00 | Hi guys, Using WinXP Pro, I have a query: I've noticed that when looking in folders that have photos, I can successfully choose which view i want, like Thumbnails, Tiles, Icons, List, Details, etc . But I've noticed that other computers, have more options like 'Filmstrip' and 'Preview' . Those other computers are WinXP as well . Where can I find this on my computer? Thanks, Caffy |

| 224685 | 2004-03-25 00:32:00 | I am viewing photos...not things like word documents etc. So I guess it should then appear as an option...I'm trying to find out why it doesnt? |

| 224688 | 2004-03-25 02:42:00 | Hi Caffy, just did a quick search and one result was that this will happen: If you select Use Windows classic folders in the Folder Options. To resolve this issue, select Show common tasks in folder: 1. Double-click the My Computer icon. 2. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options. 3. On the General tab, click Show common tasks in folder under Tasks. 4. Click OK. HTH |
