I still feel there is inconsistency here. Shouldn't there be a default order here which should provide some insight as to what "No view mode" should be used? Don't get me wrong because I think View Modes are GREAT, however I do feel it is this inconsistency which make them difficult and confusing to learn. How could you have a folder specific "No view mode" if you had a "View Mode" previously selected? So a proposed hierarchy could be to inherent the "No view mode" of the parent, and if none for the parent to default to the account-wide "No view mode." Which raises the question: Where are account-wide "No view mode" defined? Just thinking out loud, and excuse me if I'm all wet. -- Best Regards, Greg Strong Using The Bat! v2.04.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.04.07 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
