XP's Choose Details

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general,microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize,microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

All,

I am not able to add Keywords via View > Choose Details within Windows
Explorer. However, on another PC it works fine. Doesn't seem to matter
whether SP1 or SP2 - is it a specific patch that adds this functionality?
Have gone through all the folder options.

Thanks in advance.

Martin

I suspect that the system that it "works fine on" has a third party add-on
of some sort. However this is not a Microsoft patch that I know about. Can
you be a bit more specific? What "Keywords" are you referring to and how to
you activate them on that other PC?

Thanks

Harry, I hope you don't mind me jumping in, but when you're in Windows
Explorer and you choose View > Choose Details, you get a list of fields you
can add to the Details view. On my machine, one of the fields is called
"Keywords". I'm interpreting that on one of Martin's machines, "Keywords"
does not appear in the list of fields.

I'm not sure if third-party programs can add items to this list – I couldn't
find any items in the registry that define this list – but it's certainly
something to consider. I suggest that Martin look at other Microsoft
applications first.

Regards,
Rob

Ramesh is correct: The "Keywords" field is added to the "Choose Details"
dialog box of Windows Explorer by Adobe Reader 7. I looked at a second
Windows XP machine that didn't have Adobe Reader 7 installed and the field
was missing; after installing Adobe Reader 7, the field appeared at the
bottom of the list (after closing and reopening Windows Explorer).

After installing Acrobat 7 the field is there.

All,

I haven't been connected for a couple of days, so have just read through the
posts - I will install Acrobat 7 inside a VM build although am confident
it'll add the option.

Many thanks for the response.

Regards,

Martin
