File properties in Details view - Windows Explorer.

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

Columns can be set to display chosen properties - but this has do be done for
each folder.
(Select "More" from menu after R-click in column-headers bar, tick and move
required columns).
I have tried to "globalise" such a setting ("Customise" folder) but it doesn't
work even for subfolders.

Extra information entered in Properties such as Title, Summary, is copied to
another drive but the display setting of the folder is not. That has to be
re-set in the copy. It would be nice if the default display could be changed.

It would also be nice if similar information could be added to the properties of
sub-folders.

Why is it possible for files to show date created later than date modified?

Grateful for advice. Now using Win-XP-Pro, fully updated.
Yours hopefully, -
