[Ham-Computers] Frustration with MS

Jim, I am eternally indebted to you.  

I don't see where "Folder" is intuitive or even correct.  Since I am 
interested in FILE associations it shouldn't be under a heading like 
FOLDER.  They are two entirely different structures.  But then maybe 
that is why I don't work for Bill Gates.......well, that and a lot of 
other very good reasons....#8-)
