Thanks David - momentary lapse of something....
Yes, it appears "Move to folder" and "Copy to folder" are in the context
menu, which raises many questions.
1. how did they get there
2. how do i remove them, and
3. how are they interfering with the CTRL-E and edit button in the viewer
I guess 1 and 3 aren't that important, as 2 is what I'm looking for, and
maybe they'll stop interfering then.
Any ideas?
Thanks again,
John
