OK I haven't got the window skills for fooling around with much on my
computer. I started in the computers building my own back in the Motorola 6800 micro days. Since all the years passed I fell into more of just a user. Was a lot of work to try and keep current over the years and eventually stopped. Anyhow, Thanks I may give it a try. It sure would make wading through the CD's easier. Hmmm... that's not like a wedding registry huh. LOL Any clue as to hard drive space used for all the CD's?... might have to put them on the desktop. Notebook I use might run me dry on space. I just had to go and buy an OLD memory stick for my 2 year old Sony GRZ530 notebook. The dip-stick that wrote an update patch to read the new "memory stick Pro" made the patch REQUIRE the old memory stick to upgrade the computer. I bought a new camera so I could be current with the storage. I had an older Sony camera that used 3.5 floppy and NO floppy in the Sony GRZ530. They could have wrote the patch to use a 20 cent CD-R but instead forced me to find and buy a $40 old piece of memory I'll never use again. Maybe I can sell it to another owner of a GRZ530 in a few years and make a profit. They quit making it and I spent several store trips to find one. UGH!! What a hose job. Not related to boatanchors I guess but that's why some folks are migrating back to the boatanchors eh. Fewer things to break, fewer things to fix. Hmmm... now where were my 2m crystals at? 73 K4TWO Gary "Roger D Johnson" wrote in message ...

The search tool database does accumulate all the files so you can use the search tool that is provided. But still a pain to load and look one at a time. Something to do between band closings eh. If you are willing to edit the Windows registry you CAN do this. Works fine on my computer. 73, Roger -- Remove tilde (~) to reply Remember the USS Liberty (AGTR-5) http://ussliberty.org/ |
