Fairly new to Win 7 Home Premium and am wondering if it is possible to
create a Win XP- like Windows Explorer where one see a two column tree
of folders and files to facilitate dragging and dropping files. I
dislike the Win 7 Windows Explorer design and haven't figured out how
to simply drag and drop and see what is happening. I have the entry
level Win 7 and am aware that it does not allow one to fully switch to
a Win XP configuration, but wonder if there is another way to simulate
the WinXP style Windows Explorer.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mary
