When you're in one of those actual 'renamed' folders, and you go to the address bar by, for example, tabbing around, have the things actually been renamed, or are they just being 'described' using a global variable/value?
For example, where there is a 'folder'/area called 'My Documents' on my computer, it's actually an alias for C:\documents and settings\jacobk\my documents. Also, if you browse to various parts of the 'file structure' you will find things like 'Jacobk's documents' etc. etc. Basically just wanted to know if the folders have actually been physically renamed, or whether the computer is just 'reporting' the wrong thing to you? (FWIW, that sort of incremented name structure is something that we used to use/experience in the old days of MS DOS when we had to rename various things/groups of files for some forms of software upgrades etc., and although I can't remember too much I think it was sort of an 'automatic' rename-happening if you 'implemented' something that wasn't 100% right in terms of renaming using wildcard characters like *, ? etc. etc.) Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype ID: BlindZA ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Justice" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "BLIND COMPUTING MAILING LIST" <Blind-Computing@jaws-users.com> Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 12:44 AM Subject: [Blind-Computing] BIG TROUBLE, DESKTOP PROBLEMS > Somehow, inadvertently, I re-labeled a folder which is creating some > serious > problems. > > Now, when I bring up My documents, everything comes up with my wife's name > and a number.
