Wolf,

many thanks for the response and suggestion. Before I install Classic
Shell does the application display a Windows Explorer that has a
divided screen with the list of Folders on the left and the names of
the files/folders on the right side of the division, as in Win XP? I
really liked this arrangeent for dragging and dropping.
