Hi Sublime1,

Thanks for all the backstage help getting up and running.

Tell me your favorite undocumented or hard to find Windows 2000 trick.

Clouseau...

Well it's not undocumented, but it's relatively hard to find.
It has to do with the annoying behavior of Windows Explorer,
(beginning with Windows 2000, and carried into Windows XP),
to open to My Documents, rather than the C drive, as it did
in Windows 98. This can be happily remedied by altering the
shortcut to Windows Explorer so that the 'target' path reads:

%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, c:\

...and the 'Start in' box reads:

%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%

If this particular trick doesn't tickle your fancy, just
let me know in a clarification, and I'll be happy to proffer
another.

Happy computing!!!

That will work!

My favorite Windows trick is to install Linux

clouseau,

I have WIN2K runnning in dual boot with Linux.  A nice trick I just
discovered has to do with Windows Explorer:  If you open Explore,
you will see a sundial icon near the top... If you click on the
sundial icon, you will be able to explore your "History", that is documents
viewed, including Web pages, *.txt or *.pdf documents, all conveniently
arranged in categories: "Today", "Yesterday", and so on.  That way you can
easily return to a Web page or file you viewed yesterday.
