oh yeah..and this website has a great utlity for creating tabbed browsing for windows explorer (just like firefox and ie7)

its FREE, kicks ass and is stable for me under xp pro. but it took me a little time to tweak it.

it also allows you to see pictures better and when you select a file to rename...it omits the .jpg or any extension therein so you dont have to add it or seperate it.
for what its worth...

and finally...here is a great add on for outlook.

thanks for responses...on the macos x there is default folder:

http://www.stclairso...ltFolderX/index.html

its a great program.

for the response on other open / save utilities...yes, i know of them but they create dialog boxes as drop downs and have to be predetermined. the beauty of click there it is and default folder is ANY open folder can be clicked on (alt+click...whatever) and the open/save would jump to that open folder.

hopefully that makes sense...its a hard concept to explain but once you get it...and use it...you think "wow. simple and cool"

anyone know how to program it?

Hey all,

very cool to find this forum. i am an old mac guy who went windows a looong time ago. however, there was a program that i deeply miss and hope someone may knows of an equivalent or might be able to re-program it for windows.

The best way to describe it is:

http://www.mac.org/s...stem/clickthereitis/

but in my own words, you are in photoshop/word/etc and want to get to a specific directory. rather than having to burrow backwards and click, click, click to various sub sub sub directories (or networked folders)...if you could be in the save/open dialog box and move your cursor to a folder that is open on your desktop...and click anywhere inside that folder...the save/open dialog box would automatically "jump" to that directory....this feature was awesome and save a TON of time.especially when performing macros!

anyhoo...any feedback or help would be awesome and thanks for reading.
