Denny, Even, if you go 10 items down and press shift + home, it will select it from where you are at to the top. But, when you press control + C, it does not copy and paste.
Kimsan, Your command of control + spacebar really unselects, when I was in one of my music folder. It did not select, Colon Powel Hahahaha!

But if you want to select from the middle of a folder to the top, it's control shift home, not control home. Control shift end from the current file to the end of the folder. ______________________________________________________________________ Need help with that IDevice including IPhones, IPads and IPods?

So, if you have titles of songs 1, 3 and 5, doing the above will select 1,3 and 5. "Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence."

Using wind7 & J14 + 2013. It sounded interesting, maybe Judy & Tally got it to work.

This selects all the files from the originally selected file to the first file. (alternatively use shift + end to select all the files from he originally selected file to the last file.) David. original message: Hi, list, At work we download tons of books from BARD and have folders broken down by db numbers on a network drive. One of these folders has gotten too large; it takes me too long to locate a certain book. I want to make two folders instead of one and have half the files in each folder. Again these are files on a network drive. Is there a relatively painless way to select a large number of files and move them into a new folder? To do it a couple at a time would take forever. Thanks in advance.
