Mark,
on the shortcuts, can you use F2 and edit them so that they are named what you 
want?

  Hi all.

  Just moved to XP ona  new Toshiba laptop and have a few
  basic problems.

  Folder views.  I have gone into control panel after setting
  up a folder with
  details view and view files by type.  The button to set all
  folders as the
  present view is disabled.  As I want all my views to be in
  this format, is
  there a way to get this button enabled?  I have tried
  resetting all to
  defaults but that just puts it all back to a list view.  The
  machine will
  not remember the folder settings for the usb flash drive
  either.

  Shortcuts.  I have sent several shortcuts to the desktop
  using the context
  key and selecting the send to option.  If I change the anme
  of this shortcut
  on the desktop it will no longer work on the shortcut key I
  have assigned
  it.  Returning the shortcut name to its original name then
  allows the
  shortcut key to operate again.  This is particularly
  annoying as all my
  shortcuts are now labelled with the words 'shortcut to' in
  front of the name
  I actualy want for them.  This means I cannot press d for
  documents for
  instance.  I have to press s over and over as it steps
  through selecting the
  shortcuts on the desktop.

  Any ideas greatly appreciated.
