I bet U could do that w/PowerShell - so you get that Smarter keystroke outside of VFP and at the OS level.

Here at work - and even on my personal PC - I may have anywhere between 7 to 10 Explorer windows open. I keep them open to current directories of projects I am working on. Of course - it drives me INSANE when my boss comes into the shop - gets onto the co. work laptop I mostly work on - and Shuts down ALL my Explorer Windows!!! GGGGRRrrrrrrr.... -K- On 9/6/2019 10:06 AM, Gene Wirchenko wrote: > At 06:35 2019-09-06, Richard Kaye <rkaye(a)invaluable.com> wrote: >> Yeah. But I still like them in the same container.

[NF] Windows File Manager Reborn
by Alan Bourke 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Of a certain age? Certifiably insane enough to prefer the old Windows 3.x File Manager? Well, Microsoft have re-released it for free for Windows 10, on the Windows Store.

Detecting mouse click with modifier
by Paul Newton 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Hi all Does anybody know if it is possible to detect whether a modifier key (i.e. CTRL, ALT or SHIFT) was down when the mouse was clicked? I believe it's possible in some languages/frameworks but not in VFP. Would I be correct or is there some way of doing this? Many thanks Paul Newton

The old Windows File Manager can do that. It's just so...Windows 3.1 😊 My text/folder diffing tool of choice, Araxis Merge, supports 3 way file/folder comparisons as well. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech <profoxtech-bounces(a)leafe.com> On Behalf Of Gene Wirchenko Sent: Friday, September 6, 2019 1:06 PM To: profoxtech(a)leafe.com Subject: RE: [NF] Windows File Manager Reborn At 06:35 2019-09-06, Richard Kaye <rkaye(a)invaluable.com> wrote: >Yeah.
