Denny, Thanks for the information and step by step how to do this. I did have my folders set to list view. I also followed your steps to change the Jaws verbrosity setting and now it says all the info about the file.
Thanks so much for your assistance.

Type the letter S until you hear, settings center and press enter. Do a control shift d to load the default. Arrow down to, speech verbosity and press your right arrow. Arrow down to, configure speech verbosity and press your right arrow. Depending on which level of speech verbosity you are using, arrow down and press your spacebar on that level, beginner, intermediate or advanced. Once you press your spacebar it will open a selection of what you want to hear. Type the letter T until you hear, tool tips and press your spacebar to check it. Tab one time and you have a selection of Jaws messages being long or short. I keep mine set to short but it is a personal preference. Tab to OK and press your spacebar. Tab again to OK and press your spacebar. Now as you arrow up and down through your file list it will give you more information about that file. ********************************************* Have questions about that IPhone, IPad or IPod Touch?

When I had my XP pc I had checked something that allowed me to see all the info on a file. Can someone tell me what I have to check in Windows 7 to have this info show behind the file in my documents. Any assistance in the matter would be greatly appreciated.
