Thanks David,
But now my question becomes: "How do I not use thumbnail view?".
Thumbnail view appears to be being automatically selected for newly
created folders containing TIF files even though my default view is
supposed to be "details". In fact I have NEVER asked for a folder to
be displayed in Thumbnail view!
Imagine the scenario: I have a folder containing TIF files, in detail
view, which I copy. When I open the copy it is in Thumbnail view.
Argh!!
