Having found the option to slow dbl click to rename this is a fantastic time saver and should be in the totd

But this is a well-known Windows technique for entering rename mode... or?

Really!
Well maybe well known to you but not new users like me plus it does not work in WE so worth exploiting since totd is aimed at new users?

It works in my Windows XP Explorer, but I only discovered it when I started using XY :o

Really? I thought everybody knows this.

You know that you can sort columns by clicking on the column headers, don't you? :wink:

:oops: It wasn't until I read this thread that I realized why WE would go into rename mode on occasion here! DUH!!! :lol:
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

Yeah, that I know. I even figured out the other day that you can stop a PC by clicking on "Start"

Ah but did you know for it to work in WE you have to have the option set to double click to open. Mine was set to single click and so I never saw it. That is the trouble with all these options and guess which app has the most only in this case they worky! :D

In your world is Moses a name or a German expletive?
