Hi guys,

Honestly, the information he's talking about can be displayed right on the 
line alongside the filename, the regular item in the list file!  Why go into 
properties and this and that.  Why not just learn how to set filenames to 
display the informations or learn how to read it if it's already right 
there?  Some of these suggestions are workarounds for a situation that 
doesn't *need* a workaround, and by going that way a person deprives him or 
herself of learning a basic thing about what information can be displayed on 
the file listing itself, quite normally.

Hi Jim and list:

The most reliable way of finding file size that I know of is the way that I
described. Yes, it does require you to use the Jaws cursor. Sorry about
that. But really it's rare that I feel the need to investigate the
information to that extreme. Things were sure different back in the DOS
days, but enough said about that.

Cheers,
Dave
