How Can I Globally Rename the File Types in WinXP Pro (SP2)?

Hmmm.... if you like that column you should keep it of course, but I do need to stress that I did not suggest to "Show hidden files", but to NOT "Hide known file types"

Sorry - I misunderstood.

Either way I always have it configured to NOT "Hide known file types" and also to "Show hidden files".  To me, those are like one setting, as I always show all.

there is somewhere out there is a little plugin (I presume) that will
allow you to have a column with just the file extension .exe/whatever in Windows Explorer
(an extra column)

I even downloaded it at the time but using dopus never bothered with it & cant find it now
did a google search too - no luck, but maybe someone else knows about it?

How do you handle this in DOpus?  I'm using that now also.

Thanks.

DOpus 8 I'm using &
it's a royal pain to change all to same layout

You've got to select each one & click on edit

then change relevant settings - here the display &columns tabs

and it's the "Extension" column you want as oposed to "Type"

No, it's the File Type I want, not extensions.

In DOpus 9, I go to Settings>File Types...

...and then in the dialog that appears I expand the System File Types and edit them there directly.

BTW, the images are in the wrong order - not sure how to control that here. This forum doesn't seem to giver you any control over that, or doesn't say how.

Curt:
Use the pre-view page, and number the brackets, like: (attachimg=1) (attachimg=2)  -but use square brackets [] - in the order you attach them "(more attachments)"
