Mike,

Okay. I was confusing it with Arcata, which is up at the other end of 
California, near Eureka, home of UC Humboldt and acres of lush green cannabis.

  Hi Dave;

  It is in Southern California, Los Angeles County, next to Pasadena, the home 
of the Rose Bowl & Rose Parade.
     Take care.

      Hi Dave;

      She said " windows office 2007, before in 2003, there was the (..doc) 
after a file." 
        That is why I got the feeling that the Hide known file tuypes option 
was turned on.  Hope this has helped get that particular issue fixed.  Take 
care.

        Mike and Judy,

        I got the impression from Sugar's original post that the problem was 
with Outlook 2007, and not Windows Explorer.

        Sugar? Can you confirm?

          Hi Sugar;

          This might be easier to fix than you have previously thought.  It 
sounds like the " Hide extensions for file types" is turned on.  These steps 
are for XP operating systems.  To check this do the following;

          1. Press your windows key + E keystroke for Windows Explorer.
          2. Press Alt + T, for tools menu, & press the letter O, for options.
          3. press control + Tab, to the view page.
          4. and Now, tab to the Tree view files & folders list of settings.
          5. Now, arrow down to the one that says, "Hide extensions for known 
file types," and make sure this is off.  If it's on, press the spacebar to turn 
it off.
          6. Now, tab to Apply press the spacebar, then tab to apply to all 
folders, press the spacebar again, and then press the letter Y to confirm the 
prompt.  Tab to okay press enter & you should be done.
          Your computer should now show extension types for all files.

          Hope this helps.  Take care.
          Mike

            thanks Mike, I have not yet experienced any issues with 11, but I 
have with windows office 2007, before in 2003, there was the (..doc) after a 
file, and now nothing, so it's a bit exhausting trying to fiure out which is a 
folder and  a file, and so not sure anything can be done about that, but oh 
well, just another thing to adapt to suga

              Hi Sugar;

              My issues started from day 1 of the first build/ version of J11.  
As they updated J11 things seemed to get better but, although the loss of focus 
doesn't happen quite as often, J11 still loses focus regularly.I have spoken to 
tech support & written my complaints but, since they can't duplicate the 
problem they can't or won't help.  As I stated earlier this happens on more 
than 1 computer & more than 1 operting system.  I don't use my computer all the 
heavily so I don't think it's an issue of having to many processes or windows 
open.  1 other thing about J11 that I have never been able to get answer for is 
the default dictionary issues I have in all builds even though I could 
duplicate the problem while in a tandem session or on the phone with tech 
support.  Okay, enough of the rant.  LOL  Take care.
              Mike

                  Hi Shannon, Dave, & Chris;

                  I have this problem on a regular basis!  For , no reason!  It 
will happen just by doing something as simple as clicking on something on the 
desktop.  When I invoke the Jaws key, windows key, + F4 keystroke, then when I 
try to restart any version of Jaws with its respective hotkey, no version of 
Jaws will load.  I have to do a hard shutdown & reboot before I get Jaws back 
again.  I had this happen while I had Freedom Scientific on the phone for a 
different reason and they couldn't figure out / explain why it would do this 
either.  I thought, at first, that I would be very happy with J12 but, it seems 
to be doing the same old crap the J11 did!  Losing focus & just quit working 
while attempting the simplest of tasks'.  I have written them & spoken with 
them, to no avail.  Hopefully somehow this activity, or lack of, will get 
cleared up.  Oh, by the way, this is happening on 2 different desktop computers 
running XPSP3 Home, 1 laptop running XPSP3 Pro, & 1 desktop computer running 
XPSP3 MediaCenter.  Take care.
                  Mike
