*** You may need to upgrade your COMCTL32.DLL ***
This version includes a file named
Com32upd.exe that will upgrade your
COMCTL32.DLL. You will need to run
this program file if you encounter
a problem with the Windows 95 Explorer
file/folder properties dialog. The
problem is that you will see the
properties dialog extends past the
right edge of the screen and no matter
how much you drag it to the left, you
will never see the right edge of the
properties dialog.
To determine if you need to upgrade your
COMCTL32.DLL you should install FileNotes.
After installing FileNotes, open the
Windows 95 Explorer and right Click on a
File or Folder. Select Properties from the
right click menu. If the properties dialog
does not display correctly then you need to
upgrade your COMCTL32.DLL.
Features and Limitations
------------------------
FileNotes integrates with Windows 95 to
allow you to keep notes about all your
files and folders. You create and access
all your notes through the Windows 95
Explorer. To access and create notes,
simply right click the mouse on any file
or folder. FileNotes can be accessed by
right clicking on any folder or file object
on the system including the desktop and
file open dialog boxes.
The notes that you create will follow
your files and folders whereever you copy
them. When you copy or move a file or
folder, the new files created will have
the same note as the original.
When you use the Windows 95 Explorer to
delete a file, the note will follow the
file to the recycle bin so that if you
restore the file, the note will also be
restored. Unfortunately, this version
will not preserve notes for folders that
are sent to the recycle bin.
FileNotes includes the FileNotes Explorer
that allows you to quickly find, review,
add and update your notes. The FileNotes
Explorer can be accessed from either the
Start | Programs menu or from the Windows
Explorer right click menu.
This version of FileNotes does not support
short file names. This means that when you
move or copy files and folders in a DOS box,
you must use the long file name if you want
your notes to follow your files and folders.
Remember that if your long file name has a
space in it you must put double quotes around
it. Also note that the short and long filenames
are the same for files with names within the 8.3
format.
