[Dx4win] computer help needed

[Karl Oyster]

Hi folks,

I realize this has nothing to do with DX4WIN, but it's driving me 
nuts (short trip that it is) and I don't know of anywhere else 
where there's the combined amount of computer smarts as there is 
here.

Here's the situation:

I don't like to have icons up on the computer when I look at a 
folder --- I'm a word guy, not a picture guy --- so I have tried, 
any number of times, to reset all the folders to show "details" 
instead.  I followed directions I got somewhere but they don't 
seem to work.  If you can set me right on this, please contact me 
off line.

Here's what I did:

open file >
open TOOLS >
open Folder Options >
open View >
open Folders View >
click on "Apply to all folders" >
click on "yes" to set all folders to the way this one is set >
click on "OK"

And then the icons still come up when I open the folders.

Thanks, and my apologies again for using this reflector to ask the 
question....
