    Hi

    Yes, I googled that too. It's what led me to go down this route. The main deficiency with this approach is that by default, it doesn't show the folders. It in "open" mode instead of "explore" mode. Perhaps the registry hack above addresses this problem, but so does the script.

    thanks, J
