Hi Judy & Tallie,
to select roughly half the files in a folder:
1. select a file roughly half way down the list of files.
2. press shift + home. 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.)

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.  Judy & Tallie
