tip for Windows Vista
View
files the way you want
When you open a folder and see your files, you might prefer
larger or smaller icons, or a way to see different kinds
of information about each file. To make these kinds of changes,
use the Views button in the toolbar of any folder.
Each
time you click the Views button, the folder window
changes the way it displays your file and folder icons,
alternating between large icons, a smaller icon view called
Tiles, and a view called Details that shows
several columns of information about each file. If you click
the arrow next to the Views button, you'll find even
more choices.
