To carry this further, actually depends entirely on how you have your listview 
set up. In MS-Explorer the view/choose details dialog will let you determine 
what columns of data to show, and in what order. So Brandon's suggestion of 
Insert+Ctrl+5 may be correct for his setup but not for others. Mine is set up 
to show in this order:

Insert+Ctrl+1 Name
Insert+Ctrl+2 Size 
Insert+Ctrl+3 Date Modified
Insert+Ctrl+4 Title (for media files)
Insert+Ctrl+5 Duration (for audio and video files)
Insert+Ctrl+6 Date Picture Taken (image files)
Insert+Ctrl+7 Dimensions (image files)

When you run out of columns you will hear "# out of range"

    Hi, if I've understood correctly, in windows explorer set the view to 
    details under the view menu. Then as you move down to a file, you can press 
    left and right arrow keys to move to the various bits of information i.e. 
    file type, size etc.
